ZENO  WALL 


Zeno  Wall  has  been  described  as  "one  of  the  Giants  in  North  Carolina  Bap- 
tist life,"  and  in  almost  every  possible  way  he  filled  the  part.  His  radiant  per- 
sonality, commanding  physique,  resonant  speaking  voice,  longevity,  spiritual 
vision  and  love  for  people  combined  to  enable  him  to  actually  and  symbolically 
to  "stand  head  and  shoulders"  above  many  of  his  peers.  Always  Zeno  Wall 
maintained  a  genuine  concern  and  regard  for  people  which  found  expression 
through  his  "pastor's  heart"  toward  them. 

He  was  born  August  20,  1882,  near  Mooresboro  in  Rutherford  County.  His 
parents  were  Sidney  Wall  and  Jane  Robinson  Wall.  He  received  his  secondary 
education  in  the  local  schools  from  which  he  went  to  Mars  Hill  College  and  the 
Southern  Baptist  Theological  Seminary.  In  1917,  Mississippi  College  at  Clinton 
honored  him  with  a  Doctor  of  Divinity  degree. 

He  married  Ada  Kate  Ramsey  of  Marshall,  North  Carolina,  in  May,  1911,  and 
they  had  five  children:  Zeon,  Jr.,  of  Myrtle  Beach,  South  Carolina;  Mrs.  J.  Ollie 
Harris  of  Kings  Mountain,  North  Carolina;  Yates  of  Columbia,  South  Carolina; 
Woodrow  of  Newnan,  Georgia;  and  Mrs.  Walter  Fanning  of  Ridgewood,  New 
Jersey.  Mrs.  Wall  preceded  him  in  death  by  8  years,  March  11,  1959. 

In  the  spring  of  1906  he  preached  his  first  sermon  and  was  ordained  July  8, 
1908,  by  the  Cliffside  Baptist  Church.  His  first  pastorate  was  at  the  Marshall 
Baptist  Church,  Marshall,  North  Carolina.  From  1911  to  1922  he  served  in 
Mississippi,  where  he  was  pastor  at  Mt.  Olive,  Columbia,  and  Clinton,  the 
latter  being  the  home  of  Mississippi  College,  with  which  he  was  closely  as- 
sociated during  this  period.  He  returned  to  North  Carolina  in  1922  as  pastor 
of  the  First  Baptist  Church,  Goldsboro,  before  going  to  Shelby  on  October  1, 
1925,  where  he  was  to  serve  for  23  years  as  pastor  of  the  First  Baptist  Church. 

During  his  ministry,  the  Shelby  Church  grew  from  600  members  to  2,600 
members,  and  he  realized  three  noteworthy  objectives  he  set  before  the  church 
at  the  beginning  of  his  ministry:  first,  the  erection  and  equipment  of  an  ade- 
quate church  building  with  1,000  Sunday  School  members;  second,  a  great 
revival  for  Shelby  (Dr.  George  W.  Truett  led  it  and  217  people  joined  the  First 
Baptist  Church);  and  four-year  status  for  Gardner-Webb  College,  which  the 
College  Trustees  voted  to  request  of  the  North  Carolina  Baptist  State  Conven- 
tion the  day  before  he  died. 

As  a  denominational  servant  he  had  few  equals.  He  served  without  pay  as 
President  of  Gardner-Webb  from  1930  to  1932.  He  was  President  of  the  State 
Convention  for  four  successive  terms — 1933-1936.  For  2V2  years  (1948-1950)  he 
was  General  Superintendent  of  the  Baptist  Children's  Homes  at  Thomasville, 
after  having  been  a  trustee  and  chairman  of  the  board  for  many  years.  He 
also  was  a  trustee  of  the  North  Carolina  Baptist  Hospital  in  Winston-Salem, 
and  preached  the  Convention  Sermon  in  1927  in  Durham. 

His  influence  extended  beyond  his  community  and  his  denomination  into 
the  halls  of  government  as  he  led  the  inaugural  prayers  for  two  of  North 
Carolina's  governors,  O.  Max  Gardner  and  Clyde  R.  Hoey,  both  from  Shelby. 

His  influence  and  example  are  being  carried  on  by  54  ministers  and  lay- 
workers  who  went  out  from  the  Shelby  church.  Four  of  these  became  College 
Presidents:  E.  Eugene  Poston,  President  of  Gardner-Webb  College;  Hoyt  Black- 
well,  the  former  President  of  Mars  Hill  College;  Arthur  Gillespie,  President  of 
a  Seminary  and  School  in  China;  and  the  late  Andy  Tate,  the  former  President 
of  William  Carey  College  in  Mississippi. 

Following  his  retirement,  he  served  numerous  churches  as  interim  pastor. 
His  most  notable  work  was  a  five-year  pastorate  at  the  Elizabeth  Baptist  Church 
in  Shelby  after  his  70th  birthday.  He  led  the  church  in  constructing  a  beautiful 
$250,000  building  following  a  disastrous  fire.  During  his  entire  ministry  he 
baptized  more  than  5,000  persons  and  officiated  at  thousands  of  weddings  and 
funerals. 

He  was  the  author  of  three  books :  Heartening  Messages,  Verities  of  the 
Gospel,  and  A  Doty  for  God-Called  Men. 

Some  have  characterized  him  in  this  way:  "Dr.  Wall  loved  people  with  a 
genuine  compassion.  He  was  a  fearless  preacher,  diligent  Bible  student,  a 
dedicated  pastor,  and  a  constant  soul-winner.  He  was  a  heroic  man,  a  man  of 
vision,  and  a  strong  man  of  God.  He  was  a  living  sermon."  With  all  this,  much 
more  could  be  said  about  this  humble  and  great  man,  yet  his  greatness  rests 
not  in  men's  opinions  of  him,  but  in  what  he  was  under  God.  It  seems  certain 
that  "a  great  man  has  fallen  in  North  Carolina"  and  we  shall  not  soon  see 
another  like  him.

J.  R.  CANTRELL 


J.  R.  CANTRELL 

J.  R.  Cantrell  was  born  April  24,  1888,  in  Cherokee  County,  South  Carolina. 
He  graduated  from  Boiling  Springs  High  School  (later  Boiling  Springs  Junior 
College,  now  Gardner- Webb  College),  in  1919.  Evidently  his  decision  to  enter 
high  school  at  the  age  of  twenty-seven  was  influenced  by  his  surrender  to  the 
call  to  preach.  He  had  been  licensed  to  preach  by  the  StateUne  Baptist  Church 
in  1915. 

In  1920,  Cantrell  "sold  his  farm  and  horses"  and,  against  the  advice  of  his 
many  friends,  entered  Wake  Forest  College.  This  part  of  his  story,  that  of  an 
ordained  minister  entering  college  with  a  family  to  support,  and  that  during 
the  pre-depression  days,  is  an  old  and  familiar  one.  During  these  days  at  Wake 
Forest  he  served  as  student  pastor  of  the  Hillsboro  Baptist  Church.  After 
graduation  he  remained  as  pastor  at  Hillsboro  until  1928. 

In  1928,  he  went  with  the  North  Carolina  Baptist  State  Convention  as  an 
evangelist.  In  1931,  he  returned  to  the  pastorate  to  serve  the  Newton  Baptist 
Church  (1931-1937),  and  Calvary  Baptist  Church,  Morganton  (1937-39). 

In  1939,  while  the  threat  of  a  second  war  hung  heavy  over  this  country, 
Cantrell  left  the  pastorate  to  lead  the  Boiling  Springs  Junior  College  as  Presi- 
dent(  1939-43).  The  remainder  of  his  active  ministry  was  spent  as  pastor  of  two 
churches  near  his  home  in  Boiling  Springs;  Poplar  Springs  Baptist  Church 
(1941-50),  and  Lattimore  Baptist  Church  (1949-61).  Four  years  later,  on  Feb.  23, 
1965,  his  wife,  Lettie  Henderson  Cantrell,  died.  Some  two  years  later,  June  25, 
1967,  J.  R.  Cantrell  died.  He  had  been  in  ill  health  since  a  stroke  suffered  in 
1963. 

He  is  survived  by  two  sons,  Cleatus  H.  Cantrell,  Asheville,  and  Dr.  John  W. 
Cantrell,  Orlando,  Fla.,  and  one  daughter,  Mrs.  A.  G.  Harmon  of  Boiling  Springs. 
A  second  daughter,  Letha,  was  killed  in  a  plane  crash  in  1949.  In  addition, 
there  are  several  grandchildren. 

Cantrell's  ministry  was  one  of  strong  guidance,  and  vigorous  inner  develop- 
ment of  the  various  phases  of  church  organization,  especially  B.Y.P.U.  He  "be- 
came its  champion  wherever  he  went."  He  served  as  President  of  the  B.Y.P.U. 
Convention  of  the  Newton  district  of  the  South  Fork  Association  for  several 
years. 

While  he  was  never  involved  in  what  would  be  considered  a  "ministry  of 
notoriety,"  Cantrell  was  another  "Joshua  of  the  hour"  for  every  church  he 
served.  He  led  people  and  challenged  them  to  grow. 

He  demonstrated  his  interest  in  Christian  Education,  and  his  ability  as  an 
administrator  during  his  years  as  President  of  Boiling  Springs  Junior  College. 
He  led  that  institution  from  a  point  of  financial  bankruptcy  and  certain  death  to 
the  point  where  it  was  ready  to  apply  for  accreditation.  Today,  twenty-five 
years  after  his  retirement  as  President,  Gardner-Webb  is  one  of  our  strongest 
junior  colleges.  Plans  are  for  it  to  become  a  senior  college  by  1970.  In  recog- 
nition of  his  contribution  to  the  college  and  the  people  of  North  Carolina, 
Gardner- Webb  conferred  an  honorary  Doctor's  Degree  in  1963. 

Dr.  Cantrell  retired  in  May,  1961,  at  the  age  of  seventy-three.  In  spite  of  his 
age  upon  entering  the  ministry,  thirty-one,  he  had  served  his  Lord  and  North 
Carolina  Baptists  for  forty-two  years.  Few  others  have  served  longer,  more 
capably,  or  more  faithfully.

FLOY  HAVNAER  CROUCH 

Dedicated  Christian!  Devoted  companion!  Wise  mother!  Friend  of  youth!  Any 
one  or  all  of  these  phrases  can  be  used  to  describe  the  life  of  Floy  Havnaer 
Crouch. 

She  was  bom  in  Hickory,  North  Carolina,  January  8,  1908,  the  daughter  of 
Mr.  and  Mrs.  Perry  Gay  Havnaer.  She  was  educated  in  the  public  school  system 
and  attended  Hickory  High  School.  Later  she  attended  Southwestern  Baptist 
Theological  Seminary  along  with  her  husband. 

When  she  was  eighteen  years  of  age,  Floy  Havnaer  married  W.  Perry  Crouch, 
who  was  then  living  in  Hickory.  Together  they  answered  God's  call  to  the 
Christian  ministry.  Together  they  served  usefully  as  pastor  and  pastor's  wife 
in  HoUis,  Oklahoma;  at  Calvary  Church,  Morganton,  North  Carolina;  at  the 
First  Baptist  Church,  Fayetteville,  North  Carolina;  and  at  the  First  Baptist 
Church,  Asheville,  North  Carolina.  In  her  capacity  as  pastor's  wife,  Floy  Crouch 
served  actively  in  Woman's  Missionary  Union;  found  her  place  in  Sunday 
School,  particularly  with  young  people;  and  found  an  active  place  in  Baptist 
Training  Union  work.  She  was  Superintendent  of  the  Young  Adult  Sunday 
School  Department  in  Asheville  for  approximately  twenty  years.  She  was  used 
in  North  Carolina  and  other  states  as  an  Approved  Sunday  School  Worker.  On 
many  occasions  she  served  as  a  leader  in  Family  Life  Conferences  at  Ridgecrest, 
in  local  churches  and  at  various  state  assemblies  over  the  south.  She  found  a 
place  of  usefulness  on  the  State  Woman's  Missionary  Union  Executive  Board  in 
North  Carolina. 

During  two  periods  of  their  joint  ministry,  she  stood  with  her  husband  in 
denominational  capacities  in  the  state  of  North  Carolina.  When  her  husband 
served  as  Secretary  of  Christian  Education  in  the  churches,  she  frequently 
traveled  with  him  to  his  engagements  over  the  state.  When  he  became  the  Ex- 
ecutive Secretary  of  the  North  Carolina  Baptist  State  Convention,  she  im- 
mediately found  her  place  by  his  side  in  his  statewide  ministry. 

Her  influence  as  a  parent  continues  to  be  felt  in  the  lives  of  her  children. 
One  son,  Rev.  Henry  Crouch,  is  a  minister.  Another  son.  Dr.  Robert  Crouch,  is 
a  respected  surgeon  in  Asheville,  North  Carolina.  A  third  son,  Daniel  C.  Crouch, 
is  making  a  contribution  as  a  Christian  businessman  in  Asheville.  A  foster 
daughter,  Mrs.  Allen  Patterson  of  Asheville  is  a  useful  housewife  and  active 
church  leader. 

Zest,  exuberance,  and  abundant  life  are  terms  that  seem  naturally  to  refer  to 
her.  Like  some  bubbling  spring  she  overflowed  and  transformed  arid  life  around 
her  until  it,  too,  began  to  bloom. 

One  could  not  know  Floy  Crouch  without  a  deeper  understanding  of  the  mean- 
ing of  "fun."  In  her  the  word  lost  any  of  the  superficiality  that  men  try  to  read 
into  it.  She  knew  how  to  make  "fun"  and  "life"  synonymous. 

At  a  time  when  many  parents  and  adults  lost  their  ability  to  communicate 
with  and  influence  youth,  she  was  on  speaking  terms  with  them.  She  did  not 
lower  her  own  standards  to  accommodate  them,  nor  was  she  so  "goody  goody 
pious"  as  to  repulse  them.  Youth  found  it  easy  to  accept  her  because  she  so 
understandingly  identified  with  them.  Hundreds  of  young  people  found  it  easy 
to  think  straight  about  life  because  they  had  found  her. 

Those  who  witnessed  her  courage  and  maturity  during  her  last  illness  were 
blessed  by  her  simple  tmist  in  God.  She  was  human  enough  to  grow  weary  in 
physical  suffering.  She  was  Christ-like  enough  to  think  of  others  in  her  suffer- 
ing. She  even  sought  to  protect  her  family  and  friends  from  the  unpleasantness 
of  her  own  personal  anguish.  In  doing  so  she  magnified  her  faith  in  the  tri- 
umphant, risen  Lord.  Her  departure  took  place  on  Nov.  22,  1967.

ISAAC  GARFIELD  GREER 


ISAAC  GARFIELD  GREER 


Isaac  Garfield  Greer  was  born  in  Watauga  County,  North  Carolina,  in  1881. 
He  received  his  education  in  the  elementary  school  at  Zionville  and  the  high 
school  at  Boone.  He  attended  the  University  of  North  Carolina  from  which  he 
was  graduated  with  the  B.A.  Degree  in  1910.  He  later  engaged  in  a  period  of 
graduate  study  at  Columbia  University  and  in  1942  Wake  Forest  University 
honored  him  by  conferring  upon  him  the  degree  Doctor  of  Laws 

Education,  culture  and  the  fine  arts  always  held  a  large  place  in  the  life  of 
Dr.  Greer.  Following  his  graduation  from  the  University  of  North  Carolina,  he 
returned  to  the  mountains  and  to  the  people  whom  he  loved  to  devote  the  next 
twenty-five  years  of  his  life.  He  taught  in  the  public  schools  of  Watauga  County 
from  1908  to  1910  and  at  Appalachian  State  University  from  1910  to  1932.  Seldom 
has  a  teacher  been  more  profoundly  loved  and  appreciated  by  his  students.  In 
addition  to  subject  matter  taught,  he  had  the  unusual  ability  of  sharing  a 
wholesome  philosophy  of  life. 

In  1928  Dr.  Greer  was  elected  to  the  Board  of  Trustees  of  the  Baptist  Chil- 
dren's Homes  of  North  Carolina,  an  agency  which  was  to  receive  an  increasing 
portion  of  his  time  and  interest.  Following  the  death  of  Dr.  M.  L.  Kesler  in  1932, 
Dr.  Greer  was  the  unanimous  choice  of  the  Trustees  to  become  General  Super- 
intendent of  the  Homes,  a  position  which  he  held  with  distinction  until  1948. 

The  impact  of  his  courageous  and  pioneering  leadership  was  soon  felt  beyond 
the  borders  of  North  Carolina.  He  added  significant  strength  to  the  Child  Wel- 
fare League  of  America  and  to  the  Children's  Bureau  of  the  Department  of 
Health,  Education  and  Welfare  in  Washington.  The  Southeastern  Child  Care 
Association,  the  North  Carolina  Conference  for  Social  Service,  and  the  Group 
Child  Care  Project  of  the  School  of  Social  Work  of  the  University  of  North 
Carolina  are  the  outgrowth  of  his  vision  and  work. 

People  in  all  walks  of  life  held  "Ike"  Greer  in  high  esteem.  His  personal 
integrity,  his  enlightened  concern  for  the  wellbeing  of  others,  his  ability  to 
stimulate  and  guide  the  intellectual  and  spiritual  growth  of  his  students,  his 
depth  of  sympathetic  understanding  of  the  needs  of  children  and  their  families, 
his  capacity  for  constructive  counsel,  his  excellence  of  performance  in  many 
fields  of  endeavor  made  him  a  much  beloved  and  trusted  leader.  He  had  the 
art  of  making  people  feel  comfortable  in  his  presence,  regardless  of  condition, 
status  or  circumstance  in  life.  Consequently,  he  became  confidant  to  statesmen, 
musicians,  executives,  educators,  ministers,  doctors,  lawyers,  social  workers, 
and  to  the  rank  and  file  of  people  who  made  their  way  to  his  door. 

As  Dr.  Greer  approached  denominational  retirement  age,  he  resigned  as  Gen- 
eral Superintendent  of  the  Children's  Homes  and  returned  to  his  Alma  Mater  to 
become  Executive  Vice-President  of  the  North  Carolina  Business  Foundation  of 
the  University  of  North  Carolina  at  Chapel  Hill,  a  position  which  he  held  until 
1954.  The  associations  which  this  position  afforded  further  served  to  strengthen 
and  enhance  his  varied  interests  in  life.  During  this  period  several  years  of 
leadership  were  provided  the  Children's  Homes  as  Chairman  of  the  Board  of 
Trustees  and  later  as  promotional  consultant.  At  the  time  of  his  death  he  was 
serving  as  Chairman  of  the  Board  of  Directors  of  the  North  Carolina  Baptist 
Foundation. 

He  possessed  a  wonderful  zest  for  living.  He  was  able  to  transmit  his  en- 
thusiasm for  life  to  his  audiences  from  platforms  and  pulpits  across  the  nation. 
His  ability  as  a  public  speaker  and  pulpiteer  was  hardly  surpassed  in  his  gen- 
eration. His  use  of  humor,  pathos,  personal  experiences  and  simple  human  in- 
terest stories  held  his  audiences  captive.  He  had  an  appropriate  word  for  every 
occasion. 

Honors  and  recognitions  which  came  to  Dr.  Greer  during  a  long  and  fruit- 
ful life  are  far  too  numerous  to  list  here.  The  following  are  simply  suggestive: 
President  of  the  Baptist  State  Convention  of  North  Carolina,  first  President  of 
the  Allied  Church  League  (now  the  Christian  Action  League)  for  17  years. 
President  of  the  Good  Health  Association  of  North  Carolina,  President  of  the 
North  Carolina  Folk  Lore  Society,  President  of  the  Southern  Appalachian  His- 
torical Association  which  produces  "Horn  in  the  West."  Even  in  retirement  he 
remained  active  in  his  church,  denomination,  civic  and  social  organizations. 
Named  in  his  honor  were  buildings  at  Appalachian  State  University  and  the 
Baptist  Children's  Homes  of  North  Carolina  at  Thomasville;  the  Greer  Home 
Campus  of  the  Baptist  Children's  Homes  of  North  Carolina  at  Chapel  Hill  is 
also  a  memorial  to  him. 

The  North  Carolina  Conference  for  Social  Service  in  1959  presented  him  with 
an  award  for  outstanding  service. 

No  man  could  accomplish  so  successfully  and  joyously  what  this  man  did 
without  the  loyal  love  and  devotion  of  a  good  wife.  In  1916  Dr.  Greer  was 
married  to  Willie  Spainhour  of  Morganton  who  graced  his  home  until  her 
death  in  1959.  Her  beautiful  Christian  spirit  complemented  all  that  he  did. 
Two  sons  were  born  to  this  union,  I.  G.  Greer,  Jr.,  an  officer  in  the  United 
States  Air  Force,  Colorado  Springs,  Colorado,  and  Joseph  P.  Greer,  Adminis- 
trator of  Children's  Memorial  Hospital,  Chicago,  Illinois.  In  1963  he  was  married 
to  the  former  Hattie  S.  O'Briant  of  Rocky  Mount.  Their  life  together  was  brief, 
but  happy  and  meaningful  both  to  them  and  to  their  numerous  friends. 

Isaac  Garfield  Greer  leaves  an  immortal  heritage  in  the  fields  of  education, 
history,  child  care,  music,  government,  counseling  and  in  Christian  citizenship.

on  the  part  of  the  Treasurer  to  maintain  such  a  bond  in  force 
for  as  long  a  period  as  ten  days  shall  authorize  the  Trustees  to 
remove  him  from  office.  The  Trustees  shall  make  full,  detailed 
reports  to  the  annual  sessions  of  the  Convention  and  at  other 
times  if  requested  by  the  General  Board.  They  shall  safely  keep

(3)  The  Executive  Committee  shall  have  three  sub-committees 
to  facilitate  its  work: 

(a)  Business  Management  (composed  of  five  members  of  the

tions. Final  recommendation  of  budget  will  come  from  the  full 
Executive  Committee.  Since  the  Executive  Committee  represents 
every  division  of  the  work  of  the  General  Board  and  all  of  the 
institutions  and  agencies,  it  is  the  proper  committee  to  recommend 
budgets  each  year.

work  of  the  agencies  and  institutions  of  the  state  and  Southern

co-operation  with  these  agencies  and  institutions  and  Woman's 
Missionary  Union.

(a)  Regular  meetings  at  least  once  per  quarter.

Committee  shall  invite  secretaries,  department  heads  and  heads  of 
all  agencies  and  institutions  of  the  Convention  to  present  written 
evaluations  of  their  needs  and  requests  for  the  next  fiscal  year.

a  budget  to  be  presented  to  the  General  Board  at  the  pre-Convention 
session  of  the  General  Board.  Any  changes  caused  by  Convention 
action,  or  later  needs  may  be  made  at  the  January  meeting  of  the 
General  Board.

call  of  the  General  Secretary-Treasurer  or  the  President  of  the

1.  The  137th  annual  session  of  the  Baptist  State  Convention  of

the  evening  of  Monday,  November  13,  1967,  with  President  Carl  E. 
Bates,  Charlotte,  in  the  chair.  Preceding  the  calling  of  the  body  to 
order,  as  the  messengers  gathered,  R.  Willis  Abernathy,  Minister  of 
Music,  Marion,  played  several  numbers  on  the  Allen  Organ,  loaned 
as  a  courtesy  of  the  Ward  Piano  Company,  Asheville. 

2.  Joseph  O.  Stroud,  Secretary  Department  of  Church  Music  of

Voice  A-Prayin'  "  (Houston  Bright),  and  "Ezekiel  Saw  the  Wheel" 
( Spiritual ) . 

8.  In  his  Message,  President  Bates  called  attention  to  the  dedicated 
fellowship  of  believers  in  Christ  in  North  Carolina  and  the  distribu- 
tion of  resources  by  the  churches,  but  he  expressed  concern  that 
the  churches  were  not  meeting  their  potential  in  baptisms,  contribu- 
tions, and  an  increase  in  number.  He  referred  to  the  present  as 
"a  rebellious  generation"  and  singled  out  three  areas  of  special 
concern.  (1)  The  need  of  understanding  the  specific  mission  of  the 
church  in  our  time.  While  we  are  on  a  mission  to  help  cure  the 
social  ills,  "the  greatest  lack  of  any  man,"  he  declared,  "is  his  lack

Baptist  State  Convention 


of  salvation."  (2)  With  reference  to  changes  in  a  changing  world, 
Bates  expressed  the  conviction  that  organizations  should  be  willing 
to  accept  them  except  when  they  affected  basic  beliefs.  (3)  The 
need  for  the  best  educated  and  most  dedicated  persons  to  serve  as 
leaders  and  prove  their  faithful  stewardship. 

9.  Joseph  O.  Stroud  led  in  the  singing  of  "I  Love  to  Tell  the 
Story." 

10.  The  Mars  Hill  Choir  sang  again,  presenting  these  numbers: 
"Bright  Canaan"  (Robert  Shaw)  and  "Amazing  Grace"  (arr.  by 
Shaw-Parker ) . 

11.  Howard  E.  Butt,  Jr.,  executive  vice-president  of  a  chain  of 
grocery  stores.  Corpus  Christi,  Texas,  founder  of  the  Board  of 
Christian  Men,  and  active  layman  in  Southern  Baptist  circles,  was 
presented  by  the  President.  Butt  called  attention  to  his  vision  of 
the  total  mobilization  of  the  church,  with  every  member  a  minister 
of  God,  all  refreshingly  different,  but  all  reminding  of  the  lordship 
of  Christ.  Each  one  is  to  be  represented  not  so  much  by  what  he 
does  as  by  how  he  does  things  for  Christ.  In  speaking  of  the  status 
quo,  the  speaker  declared  that  the  church  had  lost  much  of  its 
relevance,  that  God  intended  it  to  be  "a  colony  of  heaven  here  on 
earth  now."  Life  is  an  adventure  of  faith,  and  for  the  Christian, 
witnessing  is  not  optional,  nor  mandatory,  but  inevitable. 

12.  The  benediction  for  the  first  session  was  pronounced  by  E.  Gor- 
don Conklin,  Kinston. 

TUESDAY  MORNING— NOVEMBER  14,  1967 

13.  Following  an  organ  meditation  by  W^illis  Abernathy, 

14.  Joseph  Stroud  presented  Charles  Gatwood,  assistant  in  the 
Department  of  Music,  who  led  the  Convention  choir  in  the  number, 
"Let  Us  Arise  and  Sing."  Afterwards  the  congregation  joined  in 
singing  "Holy,  Holy,  Holy."  Clarence  Cranford,  pastor  Calvary  Bap- 
tist Church,  Washington,  D.  C,  was  presented  to  lead  the  convention 
in  the  first  of  five  devotional  messages.  Using  the  story  of  Philip 
directed  by  the  Holy  Spirit  into  the  desert  to  meet  the  Ethiopian, 
he  applied  it  to  the  place  of  the  church  in  today's  world,  suggesting: 
(1)  Go  where  the  people  are;  (2)  Identify  with  them;  (3)  Share 
with  them  what  you  have;  and  (4)  Send  them  on  their  way  re- 
joicing in  a  new  hope  in  Jesus  Christ. 

15.  Gilmer  Cross,  president  of  the  General  Board,  was  introduced. 
He  announced  that  Mrs.  Perry  Crouch,  who  for  two  years  had 
bravely  lived  with  a  malignancy,  was  back  in  an  Asheville  hospital, 
gravely  ill,  and  moved  that  the  convention  send  her  flowers  as  a 
token  of  love  and  its  prayers.  Ordered. 

16.  Cross,  in  behalf  of  the  General  Board,  then  asked  representa- 
tives wishing  to  borrow  money,  to  come  to  the  platform. 

17.  Cross  then  called  attention  to  several  actions  of  the  General 
Board  and  asked  Leon  Spencer,  Comptroller,  for  the  report  of  the 


OF  North  Carolina 


51 


Business  Manager.  Spencer  pointed  out  the  receipts  and  expendi- 
tures of  the  year  and  indicated  a  projection  for  the  remaining 
weeks  of  1967.  He  stated  that  all  special  offerings  were  sent  each 
month  to  the  specified  object. 

REPORT  OF  GENERAL  BOARD 
I.  FOREWORD 

The  year  of  1967  has  not  shown  the  same  rate  of  increase  in  our 
gifts  to  Baptist  causes  as  was  true  in  1964,  1965  and  1966.  During 
these  years  we  recorded  a  total  increase  of  23.36  in  gifts  through 
the  Cooperative  Program.  This  year  our  gifts  have  reflected  the 
uncertain  business  activity  that  seems  to  have  been  nation-wide.  The 
rising  cost  of  living,  the  war  in  Vietnam,  the  riots  in  our  cities, 
the  automobile  strike  and  similar  economic  problems  are  all  re- 
flected in  our  gifts  of  this  year.  It  is  my  hope  that  we  will  end  the 
year  three  to  four  percent  ahead  of  last  year. 

In  July,  the  General  Board  again  expressed  their  belief  that  the 
Cooperative  Program  is  the  lifeline  of  all  of  our  work,  and  by 
unanimous  vote,  decided  to  write  the  pastors  of  our  churches,  urging 
them  to  lead  their  churches  to  adopt  at  least  a  ten  percent  increase 
in  their  gifts  through  the  Cooperative  Program  for  1968. 

During  the  year,  Dr.  Herman  Ihley  resigned  as  Sunday  School 
Secretary  to  go  to  Interracial  work  in  Kentucky,  and  Miss  Katy 
Ruth  Grayson  joined  the  staff  of  Hayes  Barton  Baptist  Church. 
However,  we  have  been  able  to  secure  some  very  fine  individuals 
for  our  work.  These  include  Dr.  Claude  White,  Secretary  of  our  Sun- 
day School  Department,  Rev.  Davis  Bowen,  and  Rev.  Maurice 
Cooper,  both  associates  in  the  Training  Union  Department.  We  be- 
lieve we  have  a  very  excellent  staff  to  guide  in  the  work  of  North 
Carolina  Baptists. 

During  the  year,  Dr.  Ralph  Scales  came  to  the  Presidency  of  Wake 
Forest  University  and  Dr.  Norman  Wiggins  assumed  the  Presidency 
of  Campbell  College.  All  of  our  colleges  are  in  enlargement  pro- 
grams, and  all  are  trying  hard  to  maintain  top-level  educational  in- 
stitutions in  the  face  of  rapidly  increasing  costs  and  new  academic 
requirements.  They  deserve  your  interest  and  concern. 

Our  Social  Service  Institutions  are  also  in  enlargement  programs. 
You  can  read  about  them  in  their  reports.  I  believe  Baptists  can  be 
proud  of  our  Hospital,  our  Children's  Homes  and  our  Homes  for 
the  Aging.  They  are  alert  to  new  methods,  and  they  are  demonstrat- 
ing their  desire  to  serve  our  Baptist  cause  and  the  people  of  our 
state. 

We  are  now  completing  a  pictorial  story  of  North  Carolina  Bap- 
tists. It  has  been  an  attempt  to  show  in  pictures,  and  in  easy  reading, 
the  many  phases  of  our  North  Carolina,  Southwide  and  Worldwide 
activities  supported  through  our  Cooperative  Program  and  the  special 
gifts  of  our  people.  Two  free  copies  will  be  sent  to  each  church, 
one  to  the  pastor  and  one  to  the  superintendent  of  Sunday  School.

It  is  hoped  that  these  will  be  made  available  to  other  church 
leaders.  Additional  copies  may  be  secured  from  the  Book  Store  at  \ 
$1.50  per  copy. 

Our  minds  now  turn  to  the  Crusade  of  the  Americas  as  the  best 
possible  channel  for  spiritual  renewal  in  our  churches  and  a  new  . 
effort  to  witness  to  non-Christians  about  our  Christ.  Please  read  i 
the  report  of  the  Committee  of  27  and  listen  to  their  presentation 
Wednesday  night  of  the  Convention.  ' 

I  continue  to  be  grateful  for  the  privilege  of  working  with  our 
Baptist  people  in  North  Carolina,  with  a  wonderful  staff,  and  with  I 
the  leaders  and  trustees  of  our  institutions.  We  have  the  churches,  i 
the  institutions  and  the  denominational  framework  for  a  great  for-  i 
ward  movement  for  our  Lord.  There  are  some  pessimists  who  say 
it  is  too  late  for  such  an  advance.  They  say  our  churches  have 
lost  their  spiritual  life.  I  do  not  belong  to  this  group.  I  believe  ^ 
there  are  many  thousands  of  people  in  our  churches  who  are  sin- 
cere, genuine  Christians  who  want  to  follow  Christ.  Let  us  make 
1968  a  year  of  renewal  and  spiritual  revival.  |

II.  GENERAL  BOARD  REPORT  AND  RECOMMENDATIONS  i 

Gilmer  Cross 

Having  been  elected  President  of  the  General  Board  and  its  Execu-  I 
tive  Committee  at  the  January  meeting,  1967,  it  has  been  a  privilege  ' 
to  work  with  this  fine  group  of  Baptist  leaders  and  our  excellent  . 
staff.  j 

In  the  December,  1966,  meeting  of  the  Executive  Committee,  our  ! 
General  Secretary-Treasurer  made  a  full  report  concerning  a  be-  | 
quest  of  the  estate  of  Miss  Rachel  E.  Hatch.  This  report  indicated  ^ 
that  in  addition  to  approximately  $50,000  in  cash  and  bonds,  the 
estate  comprised  approximately  1,440  acres  of  farm  and  timber 
land  in  Duplin  County.  At  the  1966  session  in  Winston-Salem,  the  \ 
Convention  granted  the  General  Board  permission  to  borrow  $250,- 
000  to  construct  an  auditorium  at  our  summer  assembly  at  Caswell. 
We  soon  realized  this  would  not  be  a  sufficient  amount  to  build  and 
equip  this  auditorium.  The  Executive  Committee  recommended  to  j 
the  January  meeting  of  the  General  Board  that  the  Hatch  Estate  j 
be  appraised  and  sold  under  the  best  possible  plan,  and  the  money 
be  used  to  help  construct  the  auditorium.  They  also  recommended, 
in  keeping  with  the  generous  bequest  of  Miss  Hatch,  that  the  audi-  ' 
torium  be  named  the  "Rachel  E.  Hatch  Memorial  Auditorium."  The 
General  Board  approved  this  recommendation  and  the  auditorium 
is  now  under  construction.  The  final  sale  of  the  farm  and  timber 
land  will  probably  be  completed  the  latter  part  of  this  year  and  the 
full  amount  reported  to  you  at  a  later  date.  The  dedication  of  the  \ 
auditorium  at  Caswell  will  be  held  in  connection  with  the  July  17, 
1968  meeting  of  the  General  Board.

In  December,  representatives  from  the  various  institutions  and 
individuals  from  the  staff  recommended  the  publication  of  a  Pictorial 
Story  of  North  Carolina  Baptists.  This  was  to  be  an  eighty  page 
book,  carefully  edited,  and  bound  in  an  attractive  form  that 
would  help  our  people  understand  the  total  work  of  Baptists  in 
North  Carolina  and  around  the  world.  An  editing  committee  com- 
posed of  Mr.  Ottis  Hagler,  chairman,  Mr.  Ben  Fisher,  Mr.  Jimmy 
iMorriss,  Mr.  Marse  Grant  and  Mr.  Bob  Walker  have  worked  hard 
on  this  publication.  A  copy  will  be  mailed  to  each  pastor  and  each 
Sunday  School  Superintendent.  The  various  institutions  and  agencies 
will  send  copies  to  their  trustees  and  directors.  The  institutions  and 
agencies  have  shared  in  the  expense  of  the  book.  Additional  copies 
will  be  available  in  the  Baptist  Book  Store  at  $1.50  per  copy.  We 
commend  the  committee  for  an  excellent  publication  that  we  believe 
will  promote  all  of  the  work  of  Baptists  in  North  Carolina. 

During  the  January  meeting  of  the  Executive  Committee,  Sam 
O'Neal  was  advanced  to  the  place  as  Secretary  of  the  Training 
Union  Department,  succeeding  James  Morgan,  deceased. 

At  the  January  meeting  of  the  General  Board,  separate  meetings 
of  the  various  committees  were  held  to  elect  chairmen.  These  chair- 
men, along  with  five  members-at-large  and  the  president  and  two 
vice  presidents  of  the  Convention  formed  the  Executive  Committee 
for  the  year  1967.  The  Executive  Committee  as  elected  is  as  follows: 
Gilmer  Cross,  President  General  Board;  John  Lawrence,  First  Vice- 
President,  General  Board;  Carl  E.  Bates,  President,  Baptist  State 
Convention;  Boyce  Brooks,  First  Vice-President,  Baptist  State  Con- 
vention; Randolph  Gregory,  Second  Vice-President,  Baptist  State 
Convention;  Bill  Snyder,  Chairman,  Stewardship  Committee;  James 
Potter,  Chairman,  Missions  Committee;  Henry  Morgan,  Chairman, 
Church  Programs  Committee;  Robert  Simms,  Chairman,  Christian 
Higher  Education;  Howard  Holly,  Chairman,  Social  Services  Com- 
mittee; James  L.  Pharr,  Chairman,  Evangelism  Committee;  Francis 
Chesson,  Member-at-large;  Lois  Edinger,  Member-at-large;  Troy 
Hamrick,  Member-at-large;  Edison  Hill,  Member-at-large;  E.  J. 
Prevatte,  Member-at-large. 

During  the  January,  1967,  General  Board  meeting,  Mr.  Leon 
Spencer,  our  Comptroller,  announced  that  the  total  mission  gifts 
for  1966,  including  those  sent  to  the  Raleigh  office  and  those  sent 
directly  to  the  institutions  were  $9,248,414.30,  an  increase  of  $637,- 
002.16  over  1965. 

Rev.  Tom  Womble,  in  behalf  of  the  First  Baptist  Church  of  Bladen- 
boro,  presented  a  check  for  $8,500  to  purchase  a  specially  built 
trailer  to  be  used  in  the  trailer  park  areas  near  Jacksonville.  This 
is  one  of  the  fastest  growing  military  areas  in  our  country.  The 
trailer  was  received  in  the  late  spring  and  was  put  in  use  for  a  new 
chapel  ministry  during  the  summer  of  1967.  This  gift  is  already 
proving  to  be  a  real  blessing  in  our  mission  program. 

After  careful  consideration  the  Missions  Committee  recommended 
the  following  appropriations:  $26,400  for  aid  on  church  lots  in 


54 


Baptist  State  Convention 


metropolitan  areas,  involving  25  different  locations;  $13,060  for 
church  lots  in  ten  different  locations  in  rural  areas;  $74,220  as  aid 
to  53  associations  in  securing  and  maintaining  a  superintendent  of 
missions  in  their  respective  association;  $79,200  as  aid  to  pastors' 
salaries  in  strategic  locations;  $4,500  for  chaplains  in  training 
schools,  hospitals  and  prisons;  and  $6,300  for  pastoral  aid  to  pioneer 
churches  in  North  Dakota.  These  items  were  approved  by  the  Gen- 
eral Board. 

At  the  February  meeting  of  the  Executive  Committee,  Dr.  Herman 
Ihley  presented  his  resignation  as  Secretary  of  the  Sunday  School 
Department  to  accept  Interracial  work  with  the  Kentucky  State 
Baptist  Convention.  Dr.  Ihley  has  been  an  excellent  worker  with  our 
Convention  for  10  years,  and  his  resignation  was  accepted  with 
regret. 

The  Reverend  Davis  Bowen  was  elected  as  an  associate  in  the 
Training  Union  Department  to  become  effective  April  15,  1967. 
Mr.  Bowen  has  been  on  the  job  for  several  months  and  is  doing 
an  excellent  work. 

Mr.  Monroe  M.  Ashley  presented  his  resignation  as  Baptist  Student 
Chaplain  at  UNC  at  Greensboro  to  accept  employment  at  the  Baptist 
Sunday  School  Board  at  Nashville,  Tennessee.  The  resignation  was 
accepted  with  regret. 

Last  year  we  secured  additional  land  and  a  dwelling  house  near 
the  campus  at  East  Carolina  College  as  a  location  for  a  much 
needed  Baptist  Student  Center.  After  careful  plans  and  bids  on  the 
center,  the  Student  Department  was  authorized  to  secure  a  local 
contractor  and  proceed  on  a  cost  plus  basis.  The  cost  of  renovation 
and  new  construction  is  estimated  to  be  about  $95,000  plus  cost 
of  the  land  which  was  $50,000.  The  Executive  Committee  also  au- 
thorized the  sale  of  the  old  building  and  the  use  of  the  money  to 
furnish  the  new  center.  The  old  center  has  now  been  sold  for 
$14,000  and  the  new  center  completed.  It  is  an  excellent  locality 
for  our  Baptist  work  near  this  fast  growing  university  at  Greenville. 

In  the  April  meeting  of  the  Executive  Committee  we  received  the 
resignation  of  the  Reverend  Colon  L.  Godwin  as  Student  Chaplain 
at  West  Carolina  College  to  accept  work  with  the  Federal  Exten- 
sion Service  of  the  United  States  Department  of  Agriculture  in 
South  Vietnam.  The  resignation  was  accepted  with  regret. 

The  Reverend  Joe  Clontz  of  Charlotte  was  elected  to  serve  as 
Student  Chaplain  at  Western  Carolina  College.  Mr.  Clontz  grew  up 
in  the  Pritchard  Memorial  Baptist  Church  of  Charlotte  and  is  a 
graduate  of  Wake  Forest  College  and  Southeastern  Baptist  Theologi- 
cal Seminary.  He  has  been  on  the  job  since  June  1,  1967. 

The  Executive  Committee  approved  the  request  of  the  Student 
Department  to  transfer  Mr.  Dwight  Fickling  from  the  Student  Cen- 
ter in  Greenville  to  the  Student  work  at  UNC  in  Greensboro.  They 
also  approved  a  year  of  leave  of  absence  for  Robert  Hyatt,  Bap- 
tist Chaplain  at  Duke  University,  to  accept  a  Danforth  Grant  for 
graduate  study  in  religion.  Mr.  James  Y.  Greene,  former  missionary 


OF  North  Carolina

to  Korea,  was  appointed  to  serve  during  Mr.  Hyatt's  absence  from 
Duke. 

In  the  May  meeting  of  the  Executive  Committee,  the  Director  of 
the  Division  of  Missions  and  the  General  Secretary  recommended 
the  election  of  Dr.  Claude  White  of  Richmond,  Virginia  as  Secretary 
of  our  Sunday  School  Department.  Dr.  White  is  a  native  of  Elizabeth 
City  and  has  attended  Campbell  College  and  West  Texas  State 
Teachers  College.  He  is  a  graduate  of  Southwestern  Baptist  Theologi- 
cal Seminary  with  the  Master  of  Religious  Education  and  Doctor  of 
Religious  Education  degrees.  For  the  past  several  years  he  has  been 
an  associate  in  the  Sunday  School  Department  of  the  Virginia  Con- 
vention. He  was  unanimously  elected  and  has  been  at  work  since 
June  15. 

The  Executive  Committee  also  elected  Mr.  Randall  Mishoe  as 
Baptist  Chaplain  for  East  Carolina  College.  Mr.  Mishoe  is  a  graduate 
of  Clemson  University  and  Southeastern  Baptist  Theological  Semi- 
nary. He  has  served  in  the  U.  S.  Army  and  he  and  Mrs.  Mishoe 
served  as  host  and  hostess  for  one  year  in  the  Baptist  Center  of 
North  Carolina  State  University  at  Raleigh.  He  was  elected  and  has 
been  on  the  job  since  mid  summer. 

The  Executive  Committee  opened  bids  for  the  auditorium  for  our 
North  Carolina  Assembly  at  Caswell  and  after  discussion  and  ne- 
gotiation with  the  contractor,  awarded  the  contract  to  J.  W.  Cook 
and  Sons  of  Whiteville  for  $317,917.00.  The  auditorium  is  to  be 
finished  by  June  1,  1968.  The  above  price  does  not  include  the 
price  of  pews,  a  sound  system,  pulpit  furniture,  an  organ  and 
chairs  for  class  rooms.  These  will  be  determined  after  the  sale  of 
the  Hatch  property  has  been  completed. 

In  June  of  this  year  a  budget  committee  was  appointed  to  begin 
preparation  of  a  budget  for  1968.  This  committee  worked  many 
long  hours  in  the  preparation  of  a  proposed  budget.  This  budget 
was  presented  first  to  the  Executive  Committee  for  its  consideration 
and  approval.  It  was  then  presented  to  the  General  Board  for  dis- 
cussion and  was  approved.  We  now  present  it  to  you  as  one  of  our 
recommendations. 

During  the  year  there  has  been  the  usual  number  of  resignations 
and  additions  to  the  staff.  A  full  list  is  included  in  this  report  for 
your  information.

Transferred 

Mr.  Albert  Lamm,  area  missionary  in  North  Dakota. 
Dwight  L.  Fickling,  from  Greenville  to  Greensboro,  chaplain. 

Leave  of  Absence 

Robert  P.  Hyatt,  chaplain  at  Duke  University,  replaced  by  Jim 
Greene. 

At  the  July  meeting  of  the  Executive  Committee  we  received  the 
resignation  of  Mr.  James  Cansler,  Chaplain  of  the  Baptist  Student 
Center  at  the  University  of  North  Carolina  at  Chapel  Hill  for  the 
past  several  years.  Mr.  Cansler  has  accepted  the  place  as  Assistant 
Dean  of  Students  at  the  University.  After  expressions  of  apprecia- 
tion for  his  work  for  many  years,  his  resignation  was  accepted 
with  regret. 

Upon  recommendation  of  the  State  Student  Secretary,  William 
Smith,  and  Dr.  Nathan  Brooks,  Director  of  the  Division  of  Church 
Programs,  the  Reverend  Jack  Halsell,  III,  was  elected  Chaplain  of 
the  work  at  Chapel  Hill.  Mr.  Halsell  graduated  with  the  B.S.  degree 
from  M.I.T.  and  the  B.D.  degree  from  Southern  Baptist  Theological 
Seminary.  He  has  recently  served  as  pastor  of  the  Temple  Baptist 
Church  of  Champagne,  Illinois.  He  was  elected  and  has  been  on  the 
field  since  August  15,  1967. 

At  the  July  meeting  of  the  General  Board,  Dr.  W.  R.  Wagoner, 
President  of  North  Carolina  Baptist  Children's  Homes,  appeared  be- 
fore the  group  and  asked  for  permission  to  change  their  charter  to 
bring  it  up  to  date.  A  recommendation  concerning  this  matter  is 
included  in  our  recommendations  at  the  end  of  this  report.  Mr. 
Wagoner  also  announced  plans  to  open  a  Children's  Home  in  the 
area  west  of  Asheville  in  the  near  future. 

The  General  Board  approved  a  recommendation  from  the  Execu- 
tive Committee  to  separate  the  Brotherhood  Department  from  Camp 
CaRAway  and  to  make  Camp  CaRAway  a  separate  department  in 
the  Division  of  Church  Programs  with  B.  W.  Jackson  as  Director. 
Royal  Ambassador  work  would  still  be  featured  in  the  summer 
time,  but  the  facilities  would  be  made  available  to  other  depart- 
ments and  local  churches  for  camps  and  retreats  during  the  rest  of 
the  year.  This  was  approved,  and  an  associate  was  approved  for  the 
Brotherhood  Department  to  help  with  the  Brotherhood  program 
and  Royal  Ambassador  work  throughout  the  state. 

Woman's  Missionary  Union  requested  the  privilege  of  building  a 
permanent  camp  for  girls  on  approximately  150  acres  of  our  land  at 
Camp  CaRAway.  This  would  be  a  lease  agreement  with  the  title  re- 
maining in  the  name  of  the  Convention.  Woman's  Missionary  Union 
would  build  and  equip  and  operate  the  camp.  The  request  was 
granted. 

Woman's  Missionary  Union  then  requested  the  privilege  of  bor- 
rowing $250,000  to  construct  the  camp.  After  conferences  with  bank- 
ers, it  seemed  that  the  best  plan  would  be  for  the  Convention  to 
join  in  executing  the  loan  along  with  Woman's  Missionary  Union, 

I

since  the  Convention  maintains  title  to  the  property.  The  General 
Board  recommends  this  procedure  and  this  is  embodied  in  one  of 
our  recommendations  to  you  today. 

The  Executive  Committee  received  a  request  from  Convention 
President,  Carl  Bates,  for  authority  to  appoint  a  Convention  Com- 
mittee of  27  to  study  and  recommend  to  the  Annual  Session  of  the 
Convention  in  November  ways  and  means  by  which  our  Convention 
could  cooperate  with  the  Crusade  of  the  Americas.  The  Executive 
Committee  approved  the  request  that  a  Committee  of  27  be  ap- 
pointed, composed  of  nine  laymen,  nine  pastors  and  nine  Conven- 
tion Staff  members.  Later  a  group  of  high  school  and  college 
young  people  were  added  to  the  number  studying  this  proposal.  The 
Committee  will  make  their  report  to  the  Convention  Wednesday 
evening. 

During  the  year  the  Executive  Committee  considered  various  mis- 
sions items  concerning  pastoral  aid,  mission  loans  and  other  items 
referred  to  it  by  the  Missions  Committee  and  the  General  Board. 

A  recommendation  that  we  join  the  pastors  and  churches  of 
Region  Ten  in  some  help  for  the  George  W.  Truett  Mission  Camp 
was  discussed  and  approved.  Larry  Bryson  was  elected  camp  direc- 
tor for  the  summer  and  work  was  done  in  preparing  some  recrea- 
tional area  at  the  camp.  As  a  result  of  increased  interest  in  the 
Camp,  they  reported  the  largest  attendance  in  the  camp's  history. 
We  are  now  negotiating  a  new  agreement  with  the  churches  of 
the  area  that  will  allow  the  General  Board  to  join  them  in  a  long 
range  development  of  a  youth  camp  for  not  more  than  100  per 
week  at  the  Truett  property. 

The  Executive  Committee  also  took  note  of  the  fact  that  this  year 
marks  the  100th  anniversary  of  the  birth  of  Dr.  George  W.  Truett 
in  the  beautiful  hill  country  of  Western  North  Carolina.  A  committee 
from  the  First  Baptist  Church  of  Asheville  is  working  with  the 
Executive  Committee  in  refurnishing  the  Truett  home  place,  and 
we  extend  an  invitation  to  friends  throughout  our  Southern  Baptist 
Convention  to  visit  Dr.  Truett's  birthplace.  It  is  located  near 
Hayesville,  North  Carolina. 

Several  of  our  colleges  have  requested  the  privilege  of  borrowing 
money  for  construction  of  needed  buildings.  The  Executive  Com- 
mittee and  the  General  Board  has  considered  each  request  care- 
fully, and  have  approved  the  requests  for  your  consideration.  These 
requests  will  be  listed  in  our  recommendations  that  will  follow  in 
this  report.  Our  General  Board  recognized  that  the  Convention  can 
do  very  little  in  helping  the  colleges  secure  capital  funds  for  build- 
ing purposes.  However,  the  colleges  are  doing  a  good  job  of  securing 
funds  for  this  purpose  and  we  believe  the  Convention  should  ap- 
prove these  requests  for  loans. 

At  a  recent  meeting  of  the  Executive  Committee  we  received  the 
good  news  that  a  completely  outfitted  bus  was  being  presented  to  the 
Student  Department  of  Duke  to  help  them  more  effectively  to 
carry  on  their  tutoring  service  among  the  boys  and  girls  of  Durham.

This  is  an  indication  of  the  high  evaluation  the  community  puts  on 
the  service  of  the  young  people  in  this  field. 

The  Executive  Committee,  in  September,  received  the  resig- 
nation of  the  Reverend  Larry  Bryson  as  director  of  the  Cherokee 
Mission  work  with  an  understanding  that  he  was  resigning  as  pastor 
of  the  Cherokee  Baptist  Church  effective  September  3,  to  accept 
work  with  the  Brotherhood  Commission  of  the  Southern  Baptist 
Convention.  His  resignation  was  accepted  with  regret.  At  the  same 
meeting  the  Executive  Committee  accepted  the  resignation  of  Miss 
Katy  Ruth  Grayson,  an  associate  in  the  Training  Union  Depart- 
ment, to  accept  the  work  as  Director  of  Religious  Education  at  Hayes 
Barton  Baptist  Church.  The  resignation  was  accepted,  with  apprecia- 
tion for  her  splendid  service  during  the  past  seven  years.  During 
this  meeting  the  Executive  Committee  voted  to  transfer  the  Rever- 
end Albert  Lamm  to  the  Military  Areas  of  North  Carolina.  During 
the  past  five  years,  Mr.  Lamm  has  been  serving  as  our  representa- 
tive in  the  North  Dakota  area. 

Our  General  Secretary-Treasurer  and  the  Executive  Committee 
has  worked  very  closely  with  the  former  General  Secretary- 
Treasurer,  Dr.  M.  A.  Huggins,  in  the  final  preparation  of  our  North 
Carolina  Baptist  History,  which  is  now  off  the  press  and  ready  for 
your  purchase.  The  sale  price  has  been  set  at  $5.00  which  is  less 
than  the  cost  of  publishing,  but  it  is  believed  that  every  pastor  and 
every  church  library  should  have  a  copy.  As  an  incentive  to  hasten 
orders  for  this  history,  the  Executive  Committee  has  authorized  the 
Convention  staff  to  offer  all  advance  copies,  including  those  secured 
at  the  Convention,  at  an  introductory  price  of  $4.00.  Later  orders 
will  be  billed  through  the  Baptist  Book  Store  at  $5.00  per  copy. 
We  want  to  commend  Dr.  Huggins  for  this  excellent  work  of  history 
that  has  required  most  of  his  best  efforts  since  his  retirement  as 
Executive  Secretary  of  our  Convention.  We  also  want  to  thank 
Mrs.  Huggins  for  her  untiring  help  to  her  husband,  and  Dr.  Norfleet 
Gardner  for  his  many  hours  of  guidance,  proof-reading  and  coun- 
sel to  Dr.  Huggins.  We  commend  this  history  to  our  people  and  urge 
all  pastors  and  messengers  to  this  Convention  to  help  us  in  the 
distribution  of  the  history  among  our  people. 

We  believe  1967  has  been  a  good  year  for  our  Baptist  work.  Al- 
though the  increase  in  the  Cooperative  Program  has  not  been  as 
great  as  in  the  three  previous  years,  the  spirit  of  our  people  has 
been  on  the  positive  side.  We  believe  our  churches  are  beginning 
to  survey  their  needs,  adjust  their  emphases,  and  make  long  range 
plans  for  advance.  In  this  spirit  we  present  the  following  recom- 
mendations :

that  the  officers  of  the  Convention  be  authorized  to  join  in  the

the  name  of  the  Convention.

they  now  appear  in  the  book  of  advance  reports  on  pages  26-32,  be

The  General  Board  recommends  to  the  Baptist  State  Convention

official  Convention  business  on  the  following  basis:  8c  per  mile 
for  one  person  in  the  car  and  10c  for  2  or  more  persons  in  the  car. 

A.  PROPOSED  COOPERATIVE  PROGRAM  BUDGET  FOR  1968 

Upon  the  recommendation  of  the  Budget  Committee,  the  Executive 
Committee,  and  the  General  Board  we  now  present  to  you  for  your 
consideration  the  proposed  budget  for  1968. 

From  anticipated  income  of  $6,500,000  through  the  Cooperative

in  excess  of  2,100,  and 

Whereas,  as  a  result  of  the  outstanding  achievements  of  Campbell 
College  and  the  rapid  growth  of  its  student  body,  it  seems  fitting 
that  the  size  of  the  Board  of  Trustees  be  increased: 

Now  therefore,  be  it  resolved,  by  the  Board  of  Trustees  of  the 
corporation  that  the  second  sentence  of  Article  8,  subsection  (b), 
be  changed  to  read  as  follows: 

"The  membership  of  the  Board  of  Trustees  shall  be  thirty-six  (36) 
in  number,  serving  terms  of  four  (4)  years  beginning  on  January  1 
following  their  election  by  the  Baptist  State  Convention  and  shall 
serve  until  their  successors  have  been  duly  elected  and  qualified."

There  are  no  members  of  the  corporation  having  voting  rights. 
The  above  amendment  received  the  affirmative  vote  of  a  majority 
of  the  directors  in  office. 

IN  TESTIMONY  WHEREOF,  the  corporation  has  caused  this  docu- 
ment to  be  executed  in  its  name  by  its  President  and  Secretary 
this    day  of   ,  A.D.  1967.

Fruitland 

Whereas,  the  General  Board  has  been  studying  and  seeking  to 
upgrade  the  work  of  Fruitland  Baptist  Bible  Institute  for  the  past 
several  years,  and 

Whereas,  the  work  at  Fruitland  has  provided  excellent  training 
for  men  who  have  not  had  college  or  seminary  training  and, 

Whereas,  a  great  need  has  developed  for  a  library  and  adminis- 
tration building  as  a  part  of  the  needed  space  at  Fruitland,  and 

Whereas,  about  $65,000  has  already  been  received  by  the  treasurer

Campbell  College 

I  Whereas,  on  the  recommendation  of  the  Campbell  College  Board 
of  Trustees,  the  North  Carolina  Baptist  State  Convention  in  session 
on  November  16-17,  1965,  in  Charlotte,  North  Carolina,  authorized 
Campbell  College,  Incorporated,  to  borrow  the  sum  of  $1,000,000 
to  pay  the  development  cost  of  the  following: 

"A.  To  construct  one  (1)  dormitory  to  house  approximately  200 
men,  and  to  include  dining  facilities  for  a  total  of  350  students, 
estimated  to  cost  approximately  $600,000. 

B.  To  construct  one  (1)  dormitory  to  house  approximately  100 
women,  estimated  to  cost  $300,000. 

C.  To  construct  sixteen  (16)  three-bedroom  apartments  for  faculty- 
student  accommodations,  estimated  to  cost  $200,000,"  and 

Whereas,  construction  cost  increased  approximately  20  percent  be- 
tween the  date  of  the  approval  of  the  $1,000,000  loan  resolution  by 
the  North  Carolina  Baptist  State  Convention  on  November  16-17, 
1965,  and  the  approval  by  the  Federal  Housing  and  Urban  Develop- 
ment of  a  supplemental  $1,000,000  bond  issue  for  Campbell  College, 
Incorporated,  on  July  1,  1966,  and 


72 


Baptist  State  Convention 


Whereas,  Campbell  College,  Incorporated,  after  the  opening  of  the 
construction  bids,  found  itself  in  the  position  of  needing  funds  in 
excess  of  the  $1,000,000  authorized  and  that  amount  which  the 
College  could  furnish  from  its  own  resources,  and 

Whereas,  Campbell  College,  Incorporated,  because  of  the  excess 
cost,  found  it  necessary  to  delete  from  the  project  the  sixteen  (16) 
three-bedroom  apartments  for  faculty-student  accommodations  origi- 
nally estimated  to  cost  $200,000  until  authority  to  borrow  the  neces- 
sary additional  amount  needed  could  be  secured  from  the  North 
Carolina  Baptist  State  Convention,  and 

Whereas,  Campbell  College,  Incorporated,  still  finds  itself  in 
acute  need  of  the  sixteen  (16)  additional  apartments  designed  to 
accommodate  faculty-married-student  families,  and 

Whereas,  Campbell  College,  Incorporated,  has  in  its  possession 
completed,  approved  architectural  plans  for  the  construction  of  the 
sixteen  (16)  three-bedroom  apartments,  and  has  extended  sewer 
and  water  facilities  to  the  proposed  building  site,  and  has  com- 
pleted all  preliminary  grading  and  fill  work  necessary  to  begin 
construction  of  the  sixteen  (16)  three-bedroom  apartments,  and 

Whereas,  the  Board  of  Trustees  of  Campbell  College,  Incorporated, 
is  convinced  that  the  rental  fees  from  the  sixteen  (16)  three-bedroom 
apartments,  together  with  previously-pledged  revenues  in  the 
Campbell  College  Housing  and  Dining  System  bond  issues  revenue 
accounts,  will  be  sufficient  to  liquidate  an  additional,  supplemental 
loan  needed,  not  in  excess  of  the  principal  sum  of  $225,000,  and 

Whereas,  Campbell  College,  Incorporated,  has  demonstrated  its 
ability  during  the  past  fifteen  years  to  profit,  financially  and  other- 
wise, from  the  addition  of  such  facilities,  and  has  consistently 
during  this  time  produced  over-all  balanced  budgets  annually,  and 

Whereas,  the  Board  of  Trustees  of  Campbell  College,  Incorporated, 
finds  it  necessary  and  advisable  to  borrow  an  additional  sum  of 
$225,000  in  order  to  successfully  complete  the  construction  of  all 
the  buildings  authorized  by  the  North  Carolina  Baptist  State  Con- 
vention for  Campbell  College,  Incorporated,  in  their  resolution 
approved  in  regular  session  on  November  16-17,  1965,  in  Charlotte, 
North  Carolina. 

Now  THEREFORE  BE  IT  RESOLVED  by  the  North  Carolina  Baptist 
State  Convention  in  session  November  13-15,  1967,  in  Asheville, 
North  Carolina: 

1.  That  the  trustees  of  Campbell  College,  Incorporated,  be  au- 
thorized to  borrow  up  to  $225,000  to  be  used  all  or  in  part  for  the 
construction  of  sixteen  (16)  three-bedroom  apartments,  as  described 
and  heretofore  listed; 

2.  That  the  sum  actually  borrowed,  together  with  the  interest 
thereon,  shall  be  repaid  over  a  period  not  to  exceed  fifty  years, 
said  payments  of  principal  and  interest  to  be  paid  in  annual  in- 
stallments; 

3.  That  the  proper  officers  of  Campbell  College,  Incorporated,  be 
and  are  hereby  authorized  and  empowered  to  execute,  or  cause  to  be

executed,  in  the  name  of  Campbell  College,  Incorporated,  and  on 
its  behalf,  a  mortgage  upon  the  lands  upon  which  these  housing 
facilities  are  to  be  located,  together  with  the  approaches  thereto, 
provided,  however,  that  such  mortgage  shall  not  in  any  way  en- 
cumber any  other  property  owned  by  Campbell  College,  Incor-

4.  That  no  part  of  any  indebtedness  which  may  be  incurred  by 
Campbell  College,  Incorporated,  under  the  authority  of  this  resolu- 
tion shall  in  any  respect  be  deemed  or  held  to  be  the  indebtedness 
or  obligation  of  the  North  Carolina  Baptist  State  Convention,  nor 
shall  the  General  Board  of  the  North  Carolina  Baptist  State  Con- 
vention assume  any  responsibility  whatever  for  the  repayment  of 
such  loan  or  any  interest  thereon. 

Chowan  College 

Whereas,  the  Board  of  Trustees  of  Chowan  College  finds  it  ad- 
visable and  necessary,  in  order  for  such  institution  better  to  carry 
on  its  work  to  serve  a  student  body  of  approximately  1,200-1,500 
students,  to  borrow  the  sum  of  ONE  MILLION  DOLLARS  ($1,000,- 
000.00)  to  be  used  for  the  purpose  of  constructing  a  new  dormitory 
for  men  for  said  college,  and. 

Whereas,  it  is  the  opinion  of  the  said  Board  of  Trustees  that  it 
will  have  funds  coming  to  it  for  capital  purposes  which  will  be 
sufficient  to  liquidate  said  loan  over  a  period  not  in  excess  of  35 
years. 

Now  THEREFORE  BE  IT  RESOLVED  by  the  Board  of  Trustees  of 
Chowan  College: 

1.  That  the  proper  officers  of  Chowan  College  are  hereby  au- 
thorized and  instructed  to  borrow  the  sum  of  $1,000,000.00  for  the 
purpose  of  enabling  Chowan  College  to  erect  a  new  dormitory 
for  approximately  300  men;  that  at  the  proper  time  for  the  closing 
of  the  loan,  the  proper  officers  of  Chowan  College,  or  its  Board  of 
Trustees,  be  and  they  are  hereby  authorized  to  execute  a  note  or 
bond  with  interest  and  upon  such  terms  as  may  be  designated,  se- 
cured by  a  first  deed  of  trust  or  mortgage  on  the  said  dormitory 
for  men  and  the  lands  upon  which  same  is  located. 

2.  That  the  sums  actually  borrowed,  together  with  the  interest 
thereon,  shall  be  repaid  over  a  period  not  in  excess  of  35  years, 
the  payment  of  principal  and  interest  to  be  made  in  annual,  quar- 
terly or  monthly  installments. 

3.  That  the  proper  officers  of  Chowan  College  be  and  they  are 
hereby  authorized  and  empowered  to  execute,  or  cause  to  be  exe- 
cuted, in  the  name  of  said  college,  a  note  or  notes  and/or  bond  or 
bonds  evidencing  an  indebtedness  incurred  under  the  authority  of 
this  Resolution  and  also  to  execute  or  cause  to  be  executed,  in 
the  name  of  said  college,  a  mortgage  or  mortgages  and/ or  deed  of

Baptist  State  Convention  of  North  Carolina  nor  its  General  Board 
shall  assume  any  responsibility  whatever  for  the  repayment  of 
such  loan  or  any  interest  thereon. 

5.  That  the  Baptist  State  Convention  of  North  Carolina  at  its  next

Howard  J.  Ford,  Director 

The  past  months  have  been  months  of  adjustment,  getting  better 
acquainted  with  North  Carolina  Baptists,  and  sharing  in  work  that 
is  highly  interesting.  This  first  year  of  my  work  has  been  made 
easier  because  of  the  loyalty  and  help  of  a  dedicated  staff.  The 
General  Secretary  of  the  Convention  has  given  invaluable  help  to 
the  division  in  helping  us  meet  some  of  the  problems  and  challenges 
that  came  our  way. 

The  interrelatedness  of  all  our  mission  work — associational,  state, 
home  and  foreign — has  been  a  main  emphasis.  We  are  attempting  to 
build  a  total  concept  of  the  redemptive  mission  of  the  church.  We 
accept  the  responsibility  of  being  a  part  of  this  total  mission. 


82 


Baptist  State  Convention 


The  work  of  the  Division  of  Missions  is  being  planned  and  coordi- 
nated with  this  concept  in  mind.  Various  departments  of  the  division 
and  special  ministries  within  the  division  will  give  account  of  their 
work  in  the  following  pages. 

1.  Schools  of  Missions 

The  Division  of  Missions  has  the  responsibility  of  promoting 
Schools  of  Missions  in  the  local  associations.  It  is  necessary  to  co- 
ordinate these  Schools  with  the  local  association,  the  State  Con- 
vention, the  Home  Mission  Board,  and  the  Foreign  Mission  Board. 
Dates  for  schools  must  be  arranged  many  months  ahead  of  the 
desired  schedule.  From  October,  1966,  through  September,  1967, 
we  have  had  seven  weeks  of  Schools  of  Missions  in  the  following 
six  associations:  Neuse,  Anson,  Rowan,  West  Chowan  (two  weeks), 
Yadkin  and  Haywood.  There  were  145  churches  participating  in 
these  schools.  133  Missionaries  (State,  Home,  and  Foreign)  were 
used;  322  mission  classes  were  held;  there  was  a  total  attendance 
of  68,872  and  a  daily  average  attendance  of  10,963. 

2.  Associational  Missions 

Associational  Missions  is  a  basic  part  of  our  total  mission  program. 
We  now  have  sixty-six  associational  missionaries  in  sixty-six  as- 
sociations. Several  of  these  are  on  an  interim  or  part-time  basis, 
however.  Fifty-three  associations  are  working  in  a  cooperative  fi- 
nancial arrangement  with  the  Convention.  The  Convention  has  in- 
vested approximately  $68,000  in  this  area  of  work  this  year. 

We  have  lost  the  following  associational  missionaries  during  the 
year:  Lynn  Powers,  Ashe- Alleghany;  Carl  English,  Cullom;  Alvin 
Walker,  South  Fork;  Robert  Lathan,  Tar  River;  Paul  Breedlove, 
Tennessee  River;  and  Claude  H.  Hamby,  Union.  We  deeply  regret 
this  loss.  It  is  good  to  have  the  following  new  missionaries:  Burnt 
Swamp,  Rev.  Tony  Brewington;  Columbus,  J.  William  Ross;  Green 
River,  I.  V.  Couch;  Pee  Dee,  Hoyle  Langford;  Montgomery,  Philip 
Hutchinson;  New  Found,  Bill  Gillespie;  South  Fork,  James  B.  Mc- 
Queere;  Pilot  Mountain,  S.  Lawrence  Childs,  Jr.  (Associate);  and 
Yadkin,  J.  C.  Shore. 

3.  Church  Loan  Fund 

The  Convention  has  a  small  loan  fund  established  for  the  benefit 
of  small  churches  or  missions  that  do  not  have  the  strength  to 
obtain  a  commercial  loan.  Twenty  thousand  dollars  ($20,000)  was 
placed  in  the  budget  for  this  purpose  this  year. 

4.  Supt.  of  Area  Mission's  Report  (North  Dakota) 
Sept.  1,  1966-Auff.  31,  1967 

Sept.  15  marks  the  end  of  five  wonderful  years  in  pioneer 
missions  for  Mrs.  Lamm  and  me.  In  the  spring  of  1962  we  were 
challenged  by  the  Home  Mission  Board  and  the  Baptist  State  Con- 


OF  North  Carolina 


83 


vention  of  North  Carolina  to  plant  our  lives  here  in  North  Dakota 
to  serve  as  Area  Missionary.  We  accepted  the  challenge  and  came 
with  much  enthusiasm  and  anticipation  knowing  that  it  would  not 
be  an  easy  task.  However,  the  victories  won  for  Christ  have  been 
worth  all  the  heartaches  and  difficulties  we  have  encountered. 
~  These  five  years  have  given  us  a  new  dimension  in  world  mis- 
sions. Our  future  ministry  will  be  largely  influenced  by  the  ex- 
periences we  have  had  here.  Our  attitudes  and  concepts  concerning 
other  religious  and  denominational  groups  have  been  altered  quite 
a  bit,  and  we  feel  that  this  has  made  us  stronger  in  the  faith.  The 
various  types  of  ministries  promoted  by  the  Home  Mission  Board 
and  the  Colorado  Convention  have  helped  us  gain  this  new  insight 
and  dimension  in  missions. 

The  growth  of  our  Southern  Baptist  Witness  in  North  Dakota 
has  not  been  all  we  wanted  it  to  be,  but  it  has  been  somewhat 
steady  and  encouraging.  The  needs  are  great  and  demands  are 
being  made  which  we  cannot  meet  as  yet,  but  hope  is  not  gone 
either.  We  are  often  encouraged  by  those  who  write  and  tell  us 
that  they  are  praying  for  the  work  here,  and  sometimes  a  check 
or  money  order  for  the  needs  is  enclosed.  The  Missions'  Dept.  of  the 
Baptist  State  Convention  of  North  Carolina  has  given  pastoral 
supplement  to  several  of  our  pastors  who  could  not  have  stayed 
otherwise.  This  too  has  been  most  encouraging. 

Pastors  and  others  who  have  come  here  to  minister  have  en- 
couraged the  people  to  give  to  needs  beyond  our  own  borders  when 
their  salaries  have  not  been  adequate  in  many  instances,  and  the 
response  has  been  gratifying.  We  need  to  re-evaluate  the  salary 
situation  in  the  light  of  rising  living  expenses  and  difficulty  in 
getting  pastors  to  come  to  this  field. 

Progress  is  slow  and  seems  to  be  rather  small,  but  take  a  look 
at  the  growth  over  the  past  five  years.  We  have  seen  the  work 
grow  from  7  Churches  to  12*  and  membership  from  nearly  800 
to  about  1,600.  Cooperative  Program  giving  has  grown  from  $4,- 
718.00  to  more  than  $12,000.00  during  this  period.  The  total  mis- 
sion giving  has  increased  from  $8,157.00  to  more  than  $21,000.00. 
We  have  two  Church-type  missions  at  present,  and  we  look  for- 
ward to  starting  two  more  in  the  near  future.  However,  serious 
thought  and  study  must  be  given  to  a  couple  of  our  Churches  and 
the  two  missions  we  now  have  or  growth  and  progress  will  be 
greatly  retarded.  Remember  the  saying:  "Together  we  stand — 
Divided  we  fall." 

The  following  activities  reveal  part  of  my  ministry  for  the  past 
year:  I  traveled  50,000  miles,  served  in  two  Schools  of  Missions, 
one  week  in  Mississippi  and  two  weeks  in  North  Carolina,  made 
200  visits  to  Churches  and  missions,  delivered  77  sermons  and  ad- 
dresses, made  117  religious  and  soul- winning  visits,  assisted  summer 
missionaries  in  surveying  for  new  work,  attended  Colorado,  North 


*  The  Church  at  Hallock,  Minn.,  affiliated  with  the  Minn.  Fellowship  as  of 
Sept.  1,  thus  leaving  11  Churches  and  2  missions  in  North  Dakota.

Baptist  State  Convention 


Carolina,  and  the  Southern  Baptist  Conventions.  I  also  attended  and 
participated  in  Home  Mission  week  at  Ridgecrest,  plus  several  other 
meetings  in  connection  with  my  work  as  Supt.  of  Missions. 

I  regret  to  announce  that  my  work  in  North  Dakota  will  end  as 
of  Sept.  30,  having  resigned  on  August  29.  We  have  given  five  of 
the  best  years  of  our  ministry  here,  and  had  wanted  to  remain 
longer,  but  the  Lord  seems  to  have  opened  and  shown  us  another 
door  where  we  can  continue  our  ministry  for  Him.  We  do  not 
claim  to  have  finished  the  tasks  we  undertook  at  the  outset,  but  we 
have  tried  very  hard  to  make  our  ministry  worthwhile.  We  have 
made  many  friends  here  in  this  area  who  will  always  have  a  big 
place  in  our  hearts. 

We  look  for  and  pray  for  the  time  when  the  work  of  Southern 
Baptists  will  become  self-supporting  in  North  Dakota.  We  do  covet 
your  prayers  for  us  and  the  new  field  of  service  in  North  Carolina 
to  which  we  shall  be  going  in  a  few  days.

5.  Institutional  Ministries 

a.  McCain  Tuberculosis  Sanatorium 
Rev.  C.  R.  Edwards,  Baptist  Visitor 

There  is  a  tendency  on  the  part  of  the  patients  at  McCain  to  feel 
that  they  are  forsaken  because  many  are  many  miles  from  home 
which  makes  it  difficult  for  their  families,  friends  and  pastor  to 
visit  them.  Thus,  my  ministry  to  them  serves  to  give  them  a  moral 
and  spiritual  uplift. 

I  visit  them  once  and  sometimes  twice  per  week,  spending  as  much 
time  as  I  think  necessary  to  fulfill  my  mission.  My  service  with 
them  consists  of  Bible  reading,  prayer  and  counsel  as  the  occasion 
demands. 

The  patients,  again,  wish  that  I  express  to  the  Baptist  State 
Convention  their  sincere  appreciation  for  their  love  and  concern. 

a.  Prison  Unit — McCain  Sanatorium 
Michael  T.  Ray,  Baptist  Visitor 

During  the  past  year  the  number  of  tubercular  patients  have 
decreased  and  the  facilities,  once  used  for  patients  with  tuber- 
culosis only,  are  now  being  used  for  patients  from  over-crowded 
prison  units  throughout  North  Carolina. 

Each  Sunday  morning  there  is  Sunday  School  for  all  who  can 
attend  in  a  room  set  aside  for  that  purpose.  The  Sunday  School  is 
taught  by  a  layman  from  Aberdeen,  N.  C.  This  period  of  Bible  Study 
is  followed  by  a  Worship  Service  conducted  by  your  Baptist  Visi- 
tor. Following  the  Worship  Service  he  visits  patients  in  the  wards 
that  are  bed-ridden,  often  counselling  with  those  who  need  the 
friendliness  of  someone  he  feels  he  can  trust.  It  is  the  sharing  of 
God's  Love,  through  Jesus  Christ,  that  several  men  have  come  to

know  and  trust  their  lives  to  the  Lord.  Just  recently  two  men  have 
started  studying  a  Bible  Course  and  other  men  have  indicated  a 
desire  to  do  so. 

Have  you  ever  witnessed  to  a  man  who  has  been  behind  prison 
bars  for  25  years  and  hear  him  say,  "Well,  if  Jesus  Christ  can  forgive 
my  sins  and  can  make  me  into  the  kind  of  man  God  wants  me  to 
be,  then  I  will  believe  and  trust  Him  as  my  true  Lord?"  Do  you 
believe  this  ministry  is  worthwhile?  I  do!  Let's  pray  that  God's 
Spirit  will  speak  to  the  hearts  of  other  men. 

b.  Odom  Prison  Farm 
Dalphon  J.  Thompson,  Visiting  Representative 

The  nature  of  prison  work  is  rapidly  changing.  In  the  first  place 
the  North  Carolina  prisons  are  no  longer  called  prisons,  but  cor- 
rectional institutions.  The  idea  is  to  correct  the  inmates  rather  than 
merely  punishing  them.  Secondly,  Odom  prison  has  changed  from  a 
"close  security"  prison  to  a  correctional  institution  for  youth  of- 
fenders. Therefore,  there  will  be  a  different  type  of  person  at 
Odom  in  the  future.  The  change  is  taking  place  now.  This  will 
demand  a  different  type  of  ministry.  These  young  men  will  need 
help  that  will  enable  them  to  be  capable  of  entering  back  into 
society  soon.  This  will  demand  more  from  the  spiritual  area.  We 
Baptists  must  meet  their  spiritual  demands  and  never  lose  sight  of 
the  importance  of  the  person. 

There  are  approximately  300  inmates  at  Odom.  Between  ten  and 
twenty  voluntarily  attend  the  weekly  Simday  school  service  at 
8:45  a.m.  Hardly  a  Sunday  goes  by  that  an  inmate  does  not  want 
to  talk  about  something  that  is  bothering  him.  I  am  glad  to  serve 
here  and  this  is  a  very  important  ministry.  Baptists  of  North  Caro- 
lina can  be  glad  they  have  a  part  in  this  work  with  the  inmates 
in  our  correctional  institutions. 

c.  Samarcand  Manor  Industrial  and  Vocational  School  for  Girls 
Ernest  Poston,  Baptist  Chaplain 

Over  three  hundred  teen-age  girls  now  reside  at  Samarcand 
Manor.  A  Christian  witness  is  provided  for  these  girls  through 
Sunday  afternoon  chapel  services  and  through  personal  counseling 
and  guidance  by  four  chaplains. 

Your  Baptist  chaplain  leads  the  chapel  service  every  third  Sunday 
and  one  day  a  week  is  available  to  give  spiritual  counsel  to  those 
girls  who  request  it.  In  the  past  year  there  have  been  a  number 
of  professions  of  faith  in  Christ  and  some  of  the  girls  have  been 
baptized. 

In  recent  months  our  associational  missionaries  throughout  the 
state  have  been  asked  to  help  locate  girls  released  from  the  school 
who  have  been  baptized  and  to  encourage  them  to  unite  by  letter 
with  a  church  in  their  home  community. 

Let  us  pray  that  our  Christian  witness  may  continue  to  share 


86 


Baptist  State  Convention 


with  these  girls  the  knowledge  of  the  forgiving  love  of  our  Lord 
and  that  many  may  be  led  to  a  personal  commitment  of  their  lives 
to  Him. 

d.  Leonard  Training  School 
Rev.  Richard  Hopkins,  Baptist  Visitor  and  Counselor 

How  would  you  describe  red  to  a  person  who  was  born  blind? 
Many  of  the  boys  we  work  with  come  from  backgrounds  devoid  of 
the  experience  of  love.  To  say  to  one  of  these  that  somebody  loves 
him  is  to  speak  to  him  in  a  foreign  language.  Your  ministry  here  is 
to  give  the  boys  unconditional  acceptance.  This  is  so  strange  to  some 
that  it  takes  months  of  patient  listening  to  allow  the  boy  to  learn, 
by  trying,  that  someone  cares  just  because  he  is  there. 

We  sit  in  our  comfortable  middle  class  world  and  often  find  it 
difficult  to  imagine  that  there  is  such  a  spiritual  desert  in  some  of 
the  ''families"  of  our  state. 

The  convention  is  to  be  congratulation  for  the  concern  it  has  shown 
for  this  problem. 

"When  I  was  in  prison  you  visited  me." 

e.  Morrison  Training  School,  Hoffman,  N.  C. 
Michael  T.  Ray,  Baptist  Chaplain 

After  the  Morning  Worship  Service  and  the  invitation  had  been 
given  sixteen  boys  left  the  auditorium  and  gathered  in  a  room  set 
aside  for  counselling.  Later  another  boy  spoke  to  the  Associate 
Superintendent  of  Morrison  asking  if  he  could  speak  with  the 
chaplain.  When  asked  "what  is  on  your  mind,"  the  boy  said, 
"Chaplain,  I'm  a  Christian  but  my  twin  brother  is  not.  I  pray  for 
him  and  try  to  show  him  what  is  right,  but  sometimes  he  does  not 
listen.  I've  come  to  you  to  ask  you  to  pray  for  him  and  to  show 
him  Jesus  Christ." 

How  much  concern  do  I  have  for  my  brother?  How  much  concern 
do  YOU  have  for  your  brother?  And  how  much  concern  do  we  as 
Baptists  have  for  the  360  boys  at  Morrison  Training  School?  Some 
of  you  may  say  "These  boys  are  not  my  concern  .  .  .  they  are  the 
responsibility  of  the  State  of  North  Carolina,"  but  praise  God,  there 
are  boys  and  staff  members  at  Morrison  who  know  that  they  are 
the  concern  of  many  Baptists  of  North  Carolina  who  help  support 
the  Christian  at  the  School.  Throughout  this  year  many  boys  at 
Morrison  Training  School  have  found  the  Friend  and  Saviour  be- 
cause of  YOUR  loving  care  and  concern. 

"Inasmuch  as  ye  have  done  it  unto  one  of  the  least 
of  these  my  brethren,  ye  have  done  it  unto  me." 

6.  Report  of  the  Department  of  Interracial  Cooperation 

CoRBiN  L.  Cooper,  Secretary 

"I  can  never  really  begin  to  tell  all  that  this  summer  has  meant 
to  me,  for  how  can  you  communicate  the  joy  you  feel  when  you 
realize  that  you  had  a  part  in  winning  41  boys  and  girls  to  Christ? 


OF  North  Carolina 


87 


And  how  do  you  explain  what  it  means  when  you  find  you  love  as 
brothers  in  Christ  people  you  had  always  feared?  Words  fail  me, 
but  I  will  say  this,  I  would  not  exchange  this  summer  for  anything 
in  the  world." 

This  is  the  final  paragraph  of  a  letter  written  by  one  of  the  first 
two  white  college  students  who  have  ever  served  for  a  summer  in 
the  Department  of  Interracial  Cooperation.  But  the  summer  of  1967 
also  held  other  successful  efforts  such  as  42  Vacation  Bible  Schools 
enrolling  over  3,600  boys  and  girls.  In  the  Asheville  area  there  were 
seven  standard  schools  held  in  our  General  Baptist  churches. 

Another  new  undertaking  for  1967  was  a  series  of  four  Human 
Relations  Conferences  held  in  May  in  Wilmington,  Fayetteville, 
Rocky  Mount,  and  Statesville.  The  enrollment  and  participation 
were  encouraging. 

Also,  in  May  we  regretted  to  receive  the  resignation  of  the 
Reverend  James  Barber,  teacher-missionary  in  Fayetteville.  Mr. 
Barber  accepted  the  pastorate  of  two  churches  in  Chadbourn  and 
Whiteville. 

The  Department  supported  efforts  to  begin  an  annual  week  of 
interracial  fellowship  and  Christian  study  in  August  at  Chowan 
College.  It,  too,  proved  successful  and  will  be  repeated  next  year. 
A  similar  week  of  fellowship  at  Mars  Hill  College  in  July  had  the 
usual  good  results. 

Again  this  year  a  goodly  number  of  the  General  Baptist  State 
Convention  participated  in  the  summer  camps  and  assemblies  op- 
erated by  the  Baptist  State  Convention.  It  is  hoped  that  these  fa- 
cilities will  be  used  increasingly  in  the  future. 

The  convention  year  reached  a  climax  in  August  as  the  General 
Baptist  State  Convention  held  its  centennial  celebration  and  voted 
unanimously  to  enter  the  Crusade  of  the  Americas.  The  vote  included 
the  acceptance  of  an  invitation  for  the  two  conventions  to  jointly 
plan  and  sponsor  a  conference  on  evangelism  to  be  held  in  Greens- 
boro in  1969. 

The  year  has  been  most  encouraging  but  concludes  with  much 
work  yet  to  be  done.  It  is  our  prayer  that  the  dedicated  Christians 
in  our  Baptist  churches  throughout  North  Carolina  will  continue  to 
work  tirelessly  for  the  time  when  all  of  God's  people  might  sit 
down  together  and  plan  and  work  to  fulfill  the  purpose  of  God  in 
the  world. 

The  following  statistical  summary  of  the  seven  (7)  full-time 
workers  and  twelve  part-time  employees  reveals  something  of  the 
nature  and  extent  of  the  work  done  through  the  department.

7.  Department  of  Deaf  Missions 

Jerry  F.  Potter,  Missionary 
Neal  L.  Peyton,  Associate 

In  terms  of  overall  Southern  Baptist  History  the  work  among 
the  deaf  is  a  comparatively  recently  opened  field.  Educators  saw 
the  needs  of  the  deaf  people  in  their  field  long  before  the  churches 
realized  that  they  also  represented  a  mission  field.  The  ministry  of 
the  Deaf  Ministry  Department  can  be  considered  a  pioneer  field 
even  now.  New  methods  and  means  are  constantly  being  tried — 
some  to  become  a  part  of  the  deaf  ministry  and  some  to  be  dis- 
carded. 

For  the  first  time  in  the  history  of  the  deaf  work  a  complete 
manual  is  available  detailing  steps  to  be  taken  to  start  a  ministry 
for  the  deaf  in  a  local  church.  The  manual  is  composed  of  methods 
that  have  been  tried  in  many  areas  by  many  missionaries  to  the 
deaf.  It  will  be  very  valuable  to  churches  which  now  have  a 
ministry  to  the  deaf  in  evaluating  and  upgrading  the  present  pro- 
grams. It  will  be  available  to  any  church  desiring  it  through  the 
Department  of  Deaf  Ministry. 

The  first  annual  Interpreter's  Conference  was  held  this  year 
at  Camp  CaRAway.  The  purpose  of  this  conference  is  to  discuss 
problems  peculiar  to  this  type  of  work;  discuss  methods  for  im- 
proving the  work,  and  to  allow  these  'lay-missionaries"  to  get  to 
know  each  other. 

Sign  language  classes  are  still  being  taught  in  the  Seminary  at 
Wake  Forest,  over  television,  and  in  several  churches.  The  tele- 
vision program  for  the  deaf,  "Light  Unto  My  Path"  is  being  shown 
on  sixteen  stations  in  eight  states  and  these  stations  reach  into  a 
number  of  other  states. 

Both  missionaries  regularly  visit  two  of  the  three  schools  for  the 
deaf.  Our  summer  camp  for  the  deaf  is  especially  designed  to  reach 
this  age  group. 

In  the  main,  the  activities  of  your  two  missionaries  to  the  deaf 
could  be  summed  up  under  these  headings:  preaching,  teaching, 
visiting,  interpreting  (revivals,  special  meetings,  etc.),  counselling, 
and  training. 

We  are  deeply  indebted  to  the  Baptists  of  N.  C.  for  making  this 
ministry  possible. 

8.  City  and  Metropolitan  Missions  Department 

Ernest  C.  Upchurch,  Secretary 

The  objective  of  the  City  and  Metropolitan  Missions  Department 
is  to  work  with  and  assist  associations,  churches  and  special  com- 


OF  North  Carolina 


89 


mittees  and/ or  agencies  or  groups  in  studying  mission  oppor- 
tunities, analyzing  trends,  developing  growth  studies,  discovering 
new  cooperative  adventures  and  coordinating  urban  mission  interest 
in  these  areas. 

The  department's  work  is  divided  into  three  programs,  namely: 

I.  The  Program  of  Urban  Church  and  Associational  Missions 

This  program  is  designed  to  minister  to  city  and  metropolitan 
areas : 

City  areas  have  been  defined  as  places  with  a  population  of 
2,500  and  up. 

Metropolitan  areas  have  been  defined  as  places  of  an  integrated 
economic  and  social  unit  with  a  recognized  large  population  nucleus. 
Metropolitan  areas  usually  cover  an  entire  county  that  has  a  "par- 
ent-city" with  a  50,000  population. 

Illustration  —  Raleigh  is  a  parent-city  with  50,000+  population. 
Hence,  Raleigh  plus  Wake  County  form  a  metropolitan  area. 

The  following  counties,  at  the  time  of  this  writing,  are  located 
in  metropolitan  districts:  Alamance,  Buncombe,  Cabarrus,  Cumber- 
land, Davidson,  Durham,  Forsyth,  Gaston,  Guilford,  Mecklenburg, 
New  Hanover,  Orange,  Onslow  and  several  borderline  counties  that 
space  prohibits  naming  now. 

The  program  of  general  urban  ministries  consists  of: 

— Research  and  study  to  determine  mission  needs  and  seeking 
ways  and  means  of  meeting  these  needs. 

Church  extension  ministries  have  been  utilized  by  29  associations 
and  84  churches  during  this  year.  Our  convention's  Mission  Com- 
mittee of  the  General  Board  has  approved  $51,948  for  pastoral  salary 
assistance.  Another  $26,400  was  approved  for  the  purchase  of  lots 
for  new  churches,  relocation  of  churches  and  expansion  of  church 
work.  Many  of  these  new  missions  and  churches  have  been  as- 
sisted by  the  secretary  in  providing  suggested  techniques  and  pro- 
cedures in  the  development  of  their  work. 

Institutional  ministries  in  urban  areas  are  evaluated  and  ways 
and  means  are  sought  for  providing  a  spiritual  ministry  in  co- 
operation with  the  institution. 

II.  The  Program  of  Christian  Social  Ministries 
This  program  is  not  limited  to  city  and  metropolitan  geographical 
areas  but  is  on  a  state-wide  basis  as  need  arises.  The  ministries  in 
this  program  are  as  follows: 

The  Baptist  Center  ministry  which  include: 

a.  Mission  Centers 

b.  Good  Will  Centers 

c.  Week-day  activities 

d.  Rescue  Missions 

e.  Foster  Homes  for  care  of  the  needy. 

The  City  and  Metropolitan  Missions  Department  cooperates  with 


90 


Baptist  State  Convention 


the  Christian  Social  Ministries  Department  of  the  Home  Mission 
Board  and  the  association  in  providing  two  cooperative  ministries 
of  this  nature  in  our  state,  namely: 

The  Patterson  Avenue  Mission  Center,  Winston-Salem,  North 
Carolina.  This  center  is  a  cooperative  endeavor  of  this  department, 
the  Home  Mission  Board,  the  Pilot  Mountain  Baptist  Association 
and  the  First  Baptist  Church,  of  Winston-Salem.  The  week-day 
director's  position  is  vacant  at  this  writing.  The  center  has  a 
pastor,  separately  supported,  in  addition  to  the  week-day  pro- 
gram. Also,  this  center  has  been  the  base  of  operation  of  a  student 
project  of  community  ministry  in  cooperation  with  the  Wake  For- 
est University  student  director. 

The  Dan  Valley  Baptist  Center,  Eden,  North  Carolina,  is  a  co- 
operative ministry  of  the  state  and  Home  Mission  Board  and  the 
Dan  Valley  Association.  The  Reverend  and  Mrs.  Marvin  Southard 
are  directors  of  the  center.  Mr.  Southard  is  the  pastor  and  co- 
ordinator of  the  work.  Mrs.  Southard  is  the  director  of  the  week-day 
activities  of  the  center.  The  center  has  had  one  of  its  most 
progressive  years  of  work  under  the  leadership  of  this  dedicated 
and  competent  couple. 

The  ministry  of  Juvenile  Rehabilitation  is  designed  to  stimulate 
concern  for  youth  and  families  to  the  end  that  the  associations  and 
churches  will  provide  appropriate  ministries  for  them,  such  as: 

1.  Create  an  awareness  of  youth  and  family  needs. 

2.  Enlist  church-community  action  and  sponsorship  of  youth. 

3.  Cooperate  with  community  agencies  for  youth  development. 

Referrals  for  this  work  may  come  from  the  courts,  schools,  police, 
home  or  some  other  agency  in  the  community.  If  the  youth  is  in 
need  of  a  sponsor,  his  case  is  carefully  studied  and  a  sponsor  is 
selected  preferably  from  the  church  nearest  the  home  of  the  youth. 
A  redemptive  relationship  is  established  with  the  youth.  At  the 
same  time  the  sponsor  may  also  minister  to  the  needs  of  his  family. 

The  state  and  Home  Mission  Board  in  cooperation  with  the  Pilot 
Mountain  Association  and  the  School  of  Pastoral  Care  of  the  Baptist 
Hospital  sponsors  an  associational  Juvenile  Rehabilitation  project 
in  Winston-Salem.  The  Reverend  Maurice  Briggs  is  serving  as  the 
associational  director  of  this  ministry.  During  the  past  year  Mr. 
Briggs  assisted  47  boys  and  girls  in  this  area.  Also  he  has  spoken 
in  many  churches  and  sought  to  train  many  volunteers  in  the  work. 
Mr.  Briggs  has  given  competent  and  dedicated  leadership  to  this 
ministry. 

The  department  has  sought  to  render  a  follow-up  ministry  on  re- 
leases from  youth  correctional  centers  by  notifying  associational 
missionaries  and  pastors  of  the  areas  of  the  release  of  these  people. 
It  has  been  requested  that  these  local  people  follow  up  this  infor- 
mation with  a  personal  visit  and  enlistment.  Many  have  reportedly 
responded  to  these  requests. 

The  department's  ministry  of  adult  rehabilitation  is  designed  to 
stimulate  concern  and  provide  help  for  adults,  such  as: 


OF  North  Carolina 


91 


1.  Alcoholics 

2.  Drug  Addicts 

3.  Ex-prisoners  and  their  families 

The  department's  ministry  in  literacy  is  designed  to  lead  churches 
and/or  associations  to  provide  adult  education.  This  ministry  is 
promoted  in  cooperation  with  the  Home  Mission  Board's  guidelines. 
Its  primary  objective  is  Christian  adult  education. 

The  migrant  ministry  seeks  to  lead  churches  and/or  associations 
to  sponsor: 

1.  Special  group  ministries 

2.  Migrant  ministries  such  as  week-day  and  Sunday  programs. 

3.  Human  welfare  when  needed. 

Approximately  20,000  farm  labor  migrants  passed  through  North 
Carolina  during  1966.  The  greater  number  of  these  were  in  sections 
east  of  Raleigh,  however,  there  was  a  great  concentration  in  the 
northern  and  western  counties  of  the  state.  Many  of  our  associations 
and  churches  are  finding  great  opportunities  to  render  a  Christian 
service  ministry  to  these  people.  In  turn  these  migrants  have  greater 
appreciation  for  the  churches  and  its  people. 

The  department  also  co-ordinates  relief  programs  as  deemed  neces- 
sary by  the  Baptist  State  Convention  of  North  Carolina  if  and  when 
the  need  arises  in  our  state. 

Our  most  successful  state-wide  Christian  Social  Ministries  con- 
ference this  year  was  held  at  Durham.  This  conference  was  co- 
operatively supported  by  the  Christian  Social  Ministries  Depart- 
ment of  the  Home  Mission  Board. 

III.  The  Program  of  Work  Related  to  Non-Evangelicals. 

This  phase  of  our  work  is  not  limited  by  geographical  areas.  The 
promotion  is  to  be  state-wide  in  churches  and/ or  associations.  These 
ministries  are  directed  toward  people  of  the  non-Christian  world 
religions  and  to  all  non-evangelicals.  Our  state  has  approximately 
8,600  Jews  and  55,000  Catholics  in  our  midst  plus  numerous  other 
non-evangelical  groups.  The  ministry  provides: 

a.  Study  and  research  on  non-evangelicals. 

b.  Gather  basic  information  needed  in  designing  programs  for 
use  by  churches  and/or  associations. 

c.  Develop  suggested  techniques  for  use  by  church  and/or  as- 
sociations in  work  related  to  non-evangelicals. 

d.  Provide  information  for  churches  and/or  associations  on  non- 
evangelicals  through  such  materials  as  tracts,  pamphlets,  pub- 
lications, news  releases,  direct  mail,  etc. 

e.  Provide  conferences,  clinics,  workshops,  seminars  and  long 
range  planning  projects. 

A  state-wide  conference  in  cooperation  with  Southeastern  Semi- 
nary and  the  Home  Mission  Board  is  planned  at  the  Seminary  in 
Wake  Forest  for  November  6-8,  1967.

E.  Gary  Harthcock,  Director 
Alex  L.  Booth,  Jr.,  Dean 

Fruitland  Baptist  Bible  Institute  is  indebted  to  God  through  many 
people  for  the  blessings  that  have  come  during  the  period  since  our 
last  State  Convention.  This  report  is  essentially  the  recounting  of 
these  God-given  blessings. 

On  April  21,  1967,  this  three-year  school  for  Adult  Christian 
Education  completed  its  twenty-first  school  year  as  it  graduated 
thirty-five  seniors.  Dr.  Carl  Bates,  pastor  of  the  First  Baptist 
Church,  Charlotte,  North  Carolina,  delivered  the  Baccalaureate 
Sermon  at  an  impressive  graduation  service  held  in  the  beautiful 
sanctuary  of  First  Baptist  Church,  Hendersonville.  This  service 
marked  a  significant  first.  The  first  two  Negroes  to  graduate  from 
Fruitland  received  their  diplomas.  Dr.  O.  L.  Sherril,  Secretary  of 
the  General  Baptist  Convention  of  North  Carolina,  was  on  hand  to 
present  diplomas  to  the  Rev.  W.  M.  Adams  of  Winston-Salem  and 
the  Rev.  H.  L.  Ferguson  of  Asheville. 

Due  to  countless  hardships  among  the  students,  the  enrolment 
during  any  one  week  of  school  is  subject  to  variation.  On  the  aver- 
age, one  hundred  fifty  students  are  enrolled,  more  than  half  of 
whom  commute  daily  from  their  homes,  the  others  living  in  the 
dormitory.  The  school  operated  last  year  on  a  semester  basis  with 
two  sixteen-week  semesters.  This  year,  1967-68,  the  school  shifted 
to  the  quarter  system  with  three  twelve-week  quarters  in  the  school 
year,  leaving  one  quarter  for  the  summer  camp  program.  For  a 
diploma,  the  curriculum  consists  of  six  two-hour  courses  for  eight 
quarters,  a  total  of  ninety-six  quarter  hours. 

We  have  been  particularly  pleased  with  the  caliber  of  teachers 
that  have  committed  themselves  to  teaching  in  the  Institute.  There 
are  twelve  faculty  members,  each  well  qualified  in  his  field.  A 
great  number  of  inquiries  and  applications  are  being  received 


OF  North  Carolina 


93 


from  still  other  well-qualified  persons  who  are  interested  in  teach- 
ing at  Fruitland. 

Physical  improvements  continue  to  be  made.  As  the  limited  funds 
permit,  the  dormitory  rooms  and  class  rooms  are  being  upgraded 
with  better  lighting,  better  teaching  facilities  and  a  more  attractive 
appearance.  The  long-needed  administration  building  is  coming 
closer  to  reality  through  the  generous  giving  of  North  Carolina 
Baptists.  This  building  will  contain,  in  addition  to  administrative 
offices,  an  adequate  library,  conference  rooms.  Book  Store,  student 
lounge,  and  a  sundries  store. 

In  a  ministry  of  the  type  at  Fruitland  the  student  himself  is  the 
focal  point  in  interest  as  well  as  plans.  In  closing  this  report,  we 
should  acquaint  the  reader  with  a  few  brief  facts  about  the  students. 

1.  The  average  age  is  33.  There  is  a  steady  flow  of  young  men  as 
well  as  older  men  who  find  college  doors  closed  to  them.  Of  course, 
those  who  are  able,  young  and  old,  are  encouraged  to  go  on  to 
higher  education. 

2.  The  strain  of  working  on  a  forty-hour-per-week  job  and  attend- 
ing Fruitland  at  the  same  time  is  a  telling  factor  on  many  of  our 
students.  The  curriculum  has  been  revised  to  enable  students  who 
take  a  partial  load  of  class  hours,  to  enter  school  at  the  beginning 
of  any  quarter,  or  otherwise  to  work  at  a  speed  in  accordance 
with  their  physical  limitations. 

3.  Effort  is  constantly  being  made  to  magnify  the  God-given  call 
to  these  men  for  a  ministry  in  the  context  of  their  ability. 

10.  Town  and  Country  and  Seminary  Extension  Department 

Roy  J.  Smith,  Secretary 

The  Town  and  Country  and  Seminary  Extension  Department  was 
created  by  action  of  the  General  Board  to  begin  January  1,  1967. 
This  department  works  with  churches  in  rural  areas  and  towns 
with  population  up  to  2,500.  State  wide  ministries  include  Weeks 
of  Study  and  Fellowship,  Mountain  and  Resort  Missions,  and  the 
promotion  of  Seminary  Extension. 

The  Rural-Urban  Department  of  the  Home  Mission  Board  and  the 
Seminary  Extension  Department  of  the  Southern  Baptist  Convention 
participate  in  the  ministry  of  this  department. 

Mrs.  Nan  Jones,  formerly  employed  by  Wake  County  Hospital 
System,  came  as  office  secretary  January  1,  1967. 

Seminary  Extension 

Nine  hundred  thirty-nine  students  were  enrolled  in  50  Seminary 
Extension  Centers  in  1967.  Centers  in  57  Associations  are  organized 
for  the  coming  year. 

Seminary  Extension  is  designed  for  pastors,  church  leaders,  and 
church  members  who  are  interested  in  enriching  their  spiritual 
lives  through  the  discipline  of  in  depth  study  and  training 

Financial  assistance  in  the  form  of  scholarships  and  teachers' 
honoraria  are  provided  where  needed.

Pastoral  Aid — ^Lot  Aid 

Forty-eight  churches  and  missions  in  28  Associations  received 
pastoral  aid  during  1967.  Sixteen  of  these  mission  pastors  are  stu- 
dents and  eight  are  serving  fields  of  two  or  more  churches.  One 
pastor  in  the  Chowan  Association  serves  a  field  of  five  churches. 

Ten  churches  in  nine  Associations  received  aid  on  the  purchase 
of  church  lots.  These  mission  grants  ranged  from  $600.00  to  $2,500.00. 

In  the  allocation  of  pastoral  aid  and  lot  aid,  priority  is  given  to 
churches  joining  together  in  a  field  of  work,  student  pastors,  and 
churches  with  unusual  missionary  opportunities. 

Weeks  of  Christian  Study  and  Fellowship 

The  annual  Week  of  Christian  Study  and  Fellowship  at  Mars  Hill 
College  had  an  enrollment  of  515  ministers,  wives,  and  children. 
For  the  first  time  in  recent  years  a  similar  week  was  scheduled 
for  Chowan  College.  One  hundred  thirty  people  were  in  attendance. 

These  weeks  make  it  possible  for  pastors  and  their  families  to 
come  aside  for  spiritual,  intellectual,  and  physical  renewal.  A  bal- 
anced program  of  worship,  study,  and  recreation  is  provided  for 
ministers,  their  wives,  and  children.  Nursery  through  Junior  age. 

Meals  are  the  only  cost  to  those  attending.  The  College  and  the 
Baptist  State  Convention  provide  lodging  facilities  and  the  program. 

Resort  Missions 

The  Baptist  State  Convention  participated  in  three  Resort  Mission 
ministries  this  year. 

1.  Kitty  Hawk  —  This  is  a  co-operative  ministry  jointly  spon- 
sored by  the  Baptist  State  Convention,  the  Chowan  Baptist  Associa- 
tion, and  the  Dare  County  Ministerial  Association.  Reverend  J.  W. 
Costner,  Rutherfordton,  served  as  Chapel  minister  during  the  sum- 
mer. Seven  hundred  seventy-five  people  from  15  states  attended 
the  Chapel  Sunday  School  and  worship  services. 

Four  nights  each  week  worship  services,  utilizing  Christian  films, 
were  conducted  on  the  beach.  Engaged  in  these  services  were  2,805 
persons. 

2.  Lake  Norman  —  Reverend  Arthur  Herron  served  as  summer 
missionary  at  Lake  Norman.  His  major  responsibility  was  an  in- 
tensive survey  to  determine  needs  and  possible  approaches  toward 
a  resort  ministry.  The  four  Associations  involved  in  the  Lake  Nor- 
man area  are  projecting  plans  for  a  resort  ministry  in  co-operation 
with  the  Baptist  State  Convention. 

3.  Atlantic  Beach  —  A  preliminary  survey  conducted  this  summer 
revealed  nine  campsites  and  trailer  parks  with  no  Christian  ministry. 
The  Baptist  State  Convention,  the  Atlantic  Baptist  Association,  the 
First  Baptist  Church,  Swansboro,  and  the  First  Baptist  Church, 
Morehead  City  are  developing  a  comprehensive  ministry  for  this 
area. 

Plans  for  the  next  year  include  ministries  at  Ocean  Isle,  Holdens 


OF  North  Carolina

Beach,  state  and  national  parks,  and  a  specialized  ministry  to  the 
students  employed  in  these  areas. 

Truett  Camp 

The  1967  season  was  one  of  expansion  and  growth  for  the 
George  W.  Truett  Memorial  Camp.  Improved  facilities,  a  more  com- 
prehensive program,  and  an  expanded  staff  under  the  leadership  of 
Reverend  Walter  Middleton,  Camp  Director,  resulted  in  a  greatly 
increased  attendance. 

The  Camp  Committee  borrowed  $1,000.00  with  a  similar  amount 
given  on  a  matching  basis  by  the  Baptist  State  Convention.  These 
funds  were  used  to  provide  expanded  and  improved  physical  facili- 
ties. This  work  was  directed  by  the  Building  and  Grounds  Commit- 
tee, Reverend  Robert  L.  Clegg,  Chairman,  and  included :  a  ball  field, 
a  nine-hole  carpet  golf  course,  ping  pong  tables,  shuffleboards, 
basketball  court,  volley  ball,  badminton,  and  the  grading  and  gravel- 
ing of  the  road  leading  to  the  camp.  A  mission  minded  group  of 
young  people  from  the  University  Baptist  Church,  Chapel  Hill,  spent 
a  week  working  at  the  camp. 

The  Truett  Camp  Committee  is  asking  all  churches  in  Region  10 
to  contribute  at  least  $35.00  annually  for  a  period  of  four  years  to 
be  used  for  the  improvement  of  facilities  and  grounds.  A  long  range 
plan  of  development  is  being  prepared  by  the  Truett  Camp  Com- 
mittee in  co-operation  with  the  Baptist  State  Convention. 

Attendance  at  Truett  Camp  this  year  included  223  campers  during 
RA  and  GA  Weeks,  62  Sunbeams  at  Day  Camp,  and  72  young  people 
for  week-end  retreats.  There  were  36  professions  of  faith  and 
20  church  related  vocational  commitments. 

The  Home  Mission  Board  provided  Home  Missionaries  for  each 
week  of  camp  and  the  State  Brotherhood  Department  provided 
counselors  for  the  RA  Weeks. 

11.  Cherokee  Indian  Ministry 

Larry  Bryson  (Former  Director) 

The  Cherokee  Indian  Ministry  is  a  cooperative  ministry  of  the 
Baptist  State  Convention  of  North  Carolina  and  the  Home  Mission 
Board  of  the  Southern  Baptist  Convention.  Our  ministry  at  Chero- 
kee has  enjoyed  continued  growth  in  its  relationship  with  the 
Indian  churches  and  we  are  very  happy  that  all  of  the  churches 
have  shown  new  interest  and  growth. 

The  most  pressing  need  in  our  seventeen  Indian  churches  at  the 
present  is  qualified  men  to  serve  as  pastors.  For  the  first  time  in 
many  years  there  are  not  enough  Indian  pastors  to  serve  the 
churches;  however,  one  can  be  pleased  with  the  excellent  leadership 
given  to  the  churches  by  the  laymen.  This  pastor  situation  needs 
to  be  a  matter  of  prayer  and  concern  for  all  of  us. 

The  Child  Care  Program  continues  to  meet  a  most  pressing  need. 
Miss  lone  Johns,  Director  since  August  1,  is  giving  to  the  program 


96 


Baptist  State  Convention 


progressive  leadership.  A  very  bright  future  is  expected  under  her 
capable  leadership. 

There  are  days  ahead  in  which  we  need  to  evaluate  our  program. 
With  the  opening  of  another  Child  Care  Center  by  the  Community 
Action  Program,  and  with  the  opening  of  a  nine-month  kinder- 
garten program  in  the  schools,  a  new  evaluation  is  needed.  Children 
receive  Christian  guidance  and  love  in  our  Center  that  would  never 
be  offered  them  anywhere  else.  Pray  for  Miss  Johns  and  her  Child 
Care  staff. 

12.  Military  Ministries 

J.  Ned  Beatty,  Secretary 

The  Military  Ministries  is  a  ministry  of  the  Division  of  Missions, 
Baptist  State  Convention  of  North  Carolina  and  the  Chaplains' 
Commission  of  the  Southern  Baptist  Convention's  Home  Mission 
Board.  The  work  is  closely  coordinated  with  the  Military  Chap- 
laincy, Superintendents  of  Missions  of  the  local  associations,  and 
the  local  churches  and  Pastors  as  we  seek  together  to  provide  a 
more  effective  ministry  to  the  military  and  their  dependents.  This 
ministry,  therefore,  includes  a  great  variety  of  services  to  be 
rendered  and  activities  in  which  to  be  engaged. 

Among  the  military  dependents  are  many  wives  of  distant  lands 
who  have  brought  with  them  foreign  backgrounds  and  religions. 
One  of  these  which  we  often  encounter  is  the  modern  Buddhist 
movement,  Sokagakkai.  Last  fall,  we  made  a  rather  intensive  study 
of  this  movement  in  North  Carolina  and  presented  programs  in  our 
churches  concerning  this  and  the  Japanese  ministry  in  which  we 
are  engaged. 

A  real  highlight  of  the  year's  activities  was  our  Statewide  Japa- 
nese Fellowship  which  was  held  on  February  17  at  the  Brookwood 
Church  in  Jacksonville.  Some  150  Japanese  wives,  their  husbands 
and  children  along  with  workers  and  invited  guests  attended  from 
the  Fayetteville-Fort  Bragg  area,  the  Havelock-Cherry  Point  area, 
and  the  Jacksonville-Camp  Lejeune  area.  Reverend  Worth  Grant, 
missionary  to  Japan,  was  our  guest  speaker. 

During  the  year,  our  Japanese  ministry  has  been  expanded  by 
beginning  new  classes  at  the  Midville  Church,  Jacksonville  and 
the  First  Baptist  Church,  Havelock. 

A  Language  Missions  Conference  was  held  on  August  31,  1967  in 
Fayetteville.  Each  of  the  four  associations  in  military  areas  of  the 
state  was  well  represented  along  with  Dr.  Howard  Ford,  our 
Division  Director  and  Dr.  L.  D.  Wood  of  the  Home  Mission  Board's 
Language  Missions  Department.  Here,  we  shared  together  our  com- 
mon interest  in  this  phase  of  our  ministry,  ideas  and  programs 
which  have  been  helpful,  and  suggestions  for  the  future  that  we 
believe  was  beneficial  to  each  person  present  and  I  trust  to  the 
winning  of  many  foreign-born  military  wives,  husbands,  and  chil- 
dren. 

In  January,  1967  the  First  Baptist  Church  of  Bladenboro,  the 
Reverend  Thomas  C.  Womble,  Pastor,  presented  to  the  Baptist  State 


OF  North  Carolina 


97 


Convention  a  12'  by  57'  relocatable  chapel  to  be  used  in  military- 
ministries.  The  chapel  was  custom  built,  furnished,  and  set  up  in 
the  Pelletier  Mobile  Home  Park,  Jacksonville,  North  Carolina.  The 
ministry  was  begun  there  on  May  14  with  formal  dedicatory  ser- 
vices being  held  on  June  25,  1967.  The  dedicatory  message  was 
brought  by  the  Reverend  Gilmer  Cross,  President  of  the  Conven- 
tion's General  Board  and  Pastor  of  the  First  Baptist  Church,  Golds- 
boro.  Special  guests  included  Dr.  Willis  A.  Brown,  Associate  Direc- 
tor, Military  Ministries,  Division  of  Chaplaincy,  Home  Mission 
Board;  Major  General  and  Mrs.  J.  O.  Butcher,  Commanding  General 
Marine  Corps  Base,  Camp  Lejeune;  Colonel  and  Mrs.  James  T. 
McDaniel,  Commanding  Officer  Marine  Corps  Air  Facility,  New 
River;  Reverend  Thomas  C.  Womble  and  members  of  the  First 
Baptist  Church,  Bladenboro;  military  Chaplains  and  local  Pastors. 
During  the  summer  months,  a  vigorous  program  of  week-day  ac- 
tivities was  also  provided  with  summer  workers,  Mr.  and  Mrs. 
Jerry  McDaniel,  being  provided  by  the  Convention. 

It  was  our  joy  and  privilege  to  have  Dr.  Howard  Ford,  our  new 
Director,  Division  of  Missions  to  visit  with  us  in  each  of  our  four 
major  military  areas  during  the  month  of  February.  We  held  con- 
ferences in  each  area  with  the  Chaplains  and  Pastors  and  called 
on  the  Commanding  General  at  Marine  Corps  Air  Station,  Cherry 
Point  and  the  Marine  Corps  Base,  Camp  Lejeune. 

During  the  past  year,  a  ministry  to  the  Coast  Guardsmen  at  Fort 
Macon  was  begun,  with  services  being  held  by  the  Reverend  Jack 
Weaver,  Pastor  of  the  First  Baptist  Church,  Morehead  City. 

In  the  military  areas  of  North  Carolina,  we  find  a  ripe  mission 
field.  As  we  have  ministered  in  our  churches  this  year,  the  Lord 
has  blessed  our  labors  with  81  professions  of  faith  and  58  additions 
to  the  churches  by  letter.  God  is  not  only  sending  us  out  to  the 
peoples  of  the  world  but  through  the  military.  He  brings  the  peoples 
of  the  world  to  us.  We  are  grateful  to  North  Carolina  Baptists  for 
the  opportunity  of  ministering  to  these  persons  in  the  name  of  our 
Lord. 

C.  DIVISION  OF  EVANGELISM 

Julian  S.  Hopkins,  Director 
William  C.  Lamb,  Associate 

During  the  past  year  the  emphasis  of  the  Division  of  Evangelism 
has  involved  associational  clinics  and  conferences,  the  State-wide 
Conference  on  Evangelism,  and  plans  relative  to  the  Crusade  of 
the  Americas.  Even  though  the  Southern  Baptist  Convention  had  a 
slight  loss  in  number  of  baptisms,  it  is  encouraging  to  point  out 
that  North  Carolina  had  a  net  gain  in  number  of  baptisms  with  a 
total  of  27,815  persons  reached. 

Soul- Winning  Commitment  Day 

Much  ground  work  has  been  done  in  1967  for  Soul- Winning 
Commitment  Day  in  January  of  1968.  This  will  be  the  first  major 


7 


98 


Baptist  State  Convention 


event  in  the  activities  of  the  Crusade  of  the  Americas  which  is 
scheduled  to  begin  January  1,  1968. 

An  effort  has  been  made  to  challenge  every  church  to  make  a 
most  serious  and  prayerful  effort  to  get  at  least  ten  percent  of 
the  resident  church  members  committed  and  trained  for  personal 
witnessing,  making  regular  and  direct  approaches  to  unsaved  peo- 
ple. The  workers  in  the  Division  of  Evangelism  believe  the  churches 
must  experience  a  real  break-through  in  personal  witnessing  if  we 
move  with  God  in  the  Crusade. 

State-Wide  Conference  on  Evangelism 

"Truth — To  Set  Men  Free"  was  the  theme  of  the  State-wide  Con- 
ference on  Evangelism  which  convened  in  War  Memorial  Audi- 
torium, Greensboro,  February  6-8,  1967.  Another  record  in  atten- 
dance was  set  with  2,166  registered  persons  plus  several  hundred 
visitors  for  the  evening  sessions.  An  all  night  prayer  meeting  was 
held  in  the  chapel  of  Immanuel  Church  and  prayer  periods  were 
designated  for  each  association.  The  response  was  excellent.  It  was 
evident  that  the  Holy  Spirit  worked  through  the  speakers  to  stir 
the  hearts  and  minds  of  pastors  and  laymen  to  a  deeper  commitment 
to  Christ.  It  has  been  reported  that  some  churches  experienced  a 
genuine  revival  because  of  the  renewed  spirit  of  their  pastors. 

The  speakers  for  this  Conference  were: 

Allison,  Gray  —  Associate  Director,  Division  of  Evangelism, 

Home  Mission  Board,  Atlanta,  Georgia 
Bates,  Carl  E. — President,  Baptist  State  Convention;  Pastor,  First 

Baptist  Church,  Charlotte 
Havner,  Vance — Evangelist,  Greensboro 

Lopes,  Rubens — President,  Brazilian  Baptist  Convention,  Brazil 
McClain,  Joseph  T. — Pastor,  First  Baptist  Church,  Shelby 
Nelson,  Stanley  A. — Pastor,  Ridge  Road  Baptist  Church,  Raleigh 
Olford,  Stephen  F. — Pastor,  Calvary  Baptist  Church,  New  York 
City 

Owens,  M.  O. — Pastor,  Parkwood  Baptist  Church,  Gastonia 
Peacock,  H.  Earl — Missionary  to  Brazil,  Interpreter 
Reeves,  Harold  P. — Regional  Representative,  Radio  and  Tele- 
vision Commission  to  Asia,  Fort  Worth,  Texas 

World  Congress  on  Evangelism 

At  the  invitation  of  Dr.  Billy  Graham  and  Dr.  Carl  Henry  and 
with  the  approval  of  Dr.  Perry  Crouch  and  the  Executive  Com- 
mittee, Rev.  William  C.  Lamb,  Associate  Director  of  the  Division  of 
Evangelism,  attended  the  World  Congress  on  Evangelism  in  West 
Berlin,  Germany,  on  October  24-November  4,  1966.  This  World 
Congress  was  the  most  cosmopolitan  conference  on  evangelism  that 
has  ever  convened  with  1,270  representatives  from  all  denomina- 
tions of  100  nations  of  the  world.  At  this  congress  there  was  a 
tremendous  depth  of  spiritual  unity  and  genuine  fellowship  mani- 
fested among  Christians  from  around  the  whole  world.

Even  though  there  were  different  concepts  of  specific  facets  of 
theology  among  the  delegates,  there  was  general  agreement  that 
all  unsaved  individuals  need  to  have  a  real  encounter  with  the 
living  God  through  a  personal  experience  of  genuine  faith  in  Jesus 
Christ  and  become  disciplined  servants  possessing  a  willingness  to 
do  God's  will  through  His  church. 

During  the  days  of  the  congress  the  population  of  the  world  had 
a  net  gain  of  1,764,216  persons.  In  the  light  of  these  figures  all 
Christian  groups  recognized  the  imperative  need  of  sharing  their 
methods  of  evangelism  in  order  that  a  more  effective  work  in 
total  evangelism  might  be  accomplished  throughout  the  world. 

ASSOCIATIONAL  ClINICS 

Evangelism  clinics  were  conducted  in  most  of  the  associations  in 
early  spring  or  fall  of  1967.  The  Chairmen  of  Evangelism  and  the 
Superintendents  of  Missions  shared  in  the  planning  and  promotion 
of  these  clinics.  The  Director  and  Associate  Director  of  the  Division 
of  Evangelism  assisted  in  as  many  clinics  as  possible.  During  the 
next  few  months  it  is  hoped  that  detailed  plans  of  the  Crusade  of 
the  Americas  will  be  shared  in  every  association. 

Crusade  of  the  Americas 

The  Crusade  of  the  Americas  is  a  Christian  movement  of  God 
involving  a  joint  effort  of  Baptist  bodies  in  North,  South,  and 
Central  America.  The  primary  emphasis  is  upon  the  local  church. 
God's  will  in  this  challenging  opportunity  was  not  made  known 
first  of  all  to  or  through  any  of  the  great  Baptist  bodies  in  North 
America.  The  idea  was  born  in  the  mission  fields  of  South  America 
where  the  Baptists  are  experiencing  a  great  revival.  Dr.  Rubens 
Lopes  of  Brazil  made  the  first  public  proposal  for  a  Crusade  of  the 
Americas  at  the  meeting  of  the  Baptist  World  Alliance  in  Miami 
in  1965.  Also,  the  challenge  was  brought  to  Southern  Baptists  at 
the  Convention  in  Dallas  in  1965  where  it  was  enthusiastically 
received.  The  following  Baptist  bodies  across  the  Western  Hemi- 
sphere have  since  responded  to  the  challenge  so  that  now  20  million 
Baptists  are  in  the  movement:  Baptist  General  Conference,  General 
Association  of  General  Baptists,  National  Baptist  Convention,  U.S.A., 
Inc.,  North  American  Baptist  General  Conference,  and  Seventh-day 
Baptist  General  Conference.  Other  groups  of  Baptists  are  interested 
but  have  not  voted  as  yet  to  participate. 

At  the  State-wide  Conference  on  Evangelism,  February  1967, 
over  2,000  pastors  and  laymen  gathered  in  Greensboro  for  three 
days  in  an  intense  spirit  of  prayer  and  seeking  to  know  God's 
will.  Dr.  Lopes  challenged  the  group  with  the  open  door  of  oppor- 
tunity God  has  offered  in  the  Crusade.  Following  the  Conference, 
interest  in  the  Crusade  of  the  Americas  in  North  Carolina  rapidly 
began  to  increase. 

Soon  after  the  Conference  in  Greensboro,  Dr.  W.  Ferry  Crouch, 
General  Secretary-Treasurer  of  the  Baptist  State  Convention,  led

Baptist  State  Convention 


in  getting  the  Committee  of  27  authorized  by  the  Executive  Com- 
mittee of  the  General  Board.  The  function  of  the  Committee  is  to 
study  prayerfully  the  needs  in  North  Carolina  and  to  suggest  ob- 
jectives and  plans  for  the  Crusade  to  the  Convention  in  Asheville 
this  year.  The  Committee  is  also  to  suggest  ways  and  means  for 
getting  all  agencies  of  the  Convention  involved  in  helping  the 
churches  in  the  Crusade.  Dr.  Carl  Bates,  President  of  the  Conven- 
tion, appointed  the  Committee  of  27  consisting  of  nine  lay-people, 
nine  pastors,  and  nine  Convention  staff. 

The  Committee  of  27  has  prepared  a  booklet  of  guidelines  for 
the  churches  which  will  be  submitted  for  approval  by  the  Baptist 
State  Convention  on  November  15,  1967.  The  Crusade  of  the  Americas 
in  North  Carolina  will  involve  a  three  year  emphasis  —  1968-1970. 
The  Division  of  Evangelism  in  co-operation  with  other  Conven- 
tion Departments  and  Divisions  and  all  S.  B.  C.  agencies  will  lead 
in  the  promiotion  of  the  Crusade. 

The  purpose  of  the  Crusade  of  the  Americas  in  North  Carolina  is 
threefold : 

1.  To  challenge  every  Christian  to  review  and  renew  his  com- 
mitment to  Jesus  Christ  in  the  light  of  the  Scriptures  and  to 
pray  for  a  true  revival. 

2.  To  confront  non-Christians  with  the  truth  of  the  gospel  of 
Christ  so  that  they  can  come  into  the  fellowship  and  service 
of  God. 

3.  To  begin  a  special  and  serious  effort  to  help  every  church 
member  continue  in  spiritual  growth  and  in  involvement  in 
the  total  Christian  life. 

FIVE  YEAR  SPIRITUAL  GROWTH  ...  A  CONTINUING 
EMPHASIS 

William  C.  Lamb,  Director 

Churches  are  continuing  to  request  Spiritual  Growth  materials. 
Since  there  are  no  time  limits,  churches  may  begin  to  participate 
in  the  Spiritual  Growth  emphasis  at  any  time.  Free  literature  is 
now  available  from  the  Baptist  State  Convention. 

The  Five  Year  Spiritual  Growth  is  not  in  conflict  or  in  competi- 
tion with  any  other  Southern  Baptist  Convention  plan  or  program. 
After  studying  carefully  the  local  church  needs,  the  church  leaders 
will  determine  church- wide  goals  or  objectives  in  certain  areas. 
Each  church  can  decide  on  as  few  or  as  many  church-wide  goals 
as  it  desires  and  then  can  choose  to  use  any  Southern  Baptist  Con- 
vention correlated  plan  or  program  which  will  be  the  most  effec- 
tive in  helping  to  reach  a  particular  goal  for  a  specific  year  in 
the  light  of  a  local  church  need.  The  three  year  emphasis  of  the 
Crusade  of  the  Americas  is  interwoven  with  the  concept  of  the 
Spiritual  Growth  program  because  it  involves  objectives  in  evan- 
gelism, stewardship,  and  missions. 

The  Five  Year  Spiritual  Growth  is  not  just  another  program,  but 


OF  North  Carolina 


101 


it  is  an  emphasis  on  long-range  planning  involving  a  projection  of 
church- wide  objectives  in  certain  areas  of  church  work  for  specific 
years.  It  is  a  correlated  emphasis  including  all  church  members, 
organizations,  committees,  and  activities  of  a  Baptist  church.  A 
church-wide  objective  should  never  become  an  end  in  itself,  but 
rather  should  always  be  a  means  toward  the  ultimate  objective  of 
a  genuine  New  Testament  church.  The  primary  motivation  of  all 
church  work  involving  objectives  must  be  Christ-like  love. 

Consider  these  three  meaningful  challenges  offered  by  the 
Spiritual  Growth  emphasis :  ( 1 )  Magnify  the  church  as  a  whole  and 
not  any  program  or  organization  solely  or  exclusively.  (2)  Place 
proper  emphasis  upon  meeting  the  spiritual  needs  of  the  individual 
Christian  rather  than  trying  to  fit  every  Christian  into  an  organi- 
zational mold,  pattern,  or  routine.  To  accomplish  this,  we  must 
teach  and  preach  that  the  will  of  God  is  never  static,  stagnant,  or 
the  same  for  any  individual  Christian  or  for  any  church  over  the 
years.  (3)  In  each  area  of  church  work  for  the  Lord,  accept  the  con- 
stant challenge  to  create  new,  workable  methods  under  the  guidance 
of  the  Holy  Spirit  that  will  be  relevant  and  beneficial  to  North  Caro- 
lina Baptists  and  Southern  Baptists. 

\  The  Church  Program  Guidebook,  the  long-range  planning  semi- 
nars sponsored  by  the  Church  Administration  Department  of  the 
Sunday  School  Board,  and  the  newly  created  position  of  coordinator 
of  cooperative  promotion  planning  in  the  Education  Division  of  the 
iSunday  School  Board  enhance  the  fact  that  the  concept  of  the  Five 
Year  Spiritual  Growth  will  be  a  continuing  emphasis.

I  D.  DIVISION  OF  CHURCH  PROGRAMS 

Nathan  C.  Brooks,  Jr.,  Director 

Major  Personnel  Changes  have  occurred.  Rev.  Sam  O'Neal,  an 
Associate,  became  the  Training  Union  Director  in  January.  Dr. 
Herman  Ihley,  Sunday  School  Secretary,  resigned  effective  at  the 
end  of  February  to  head  the  Department  of  Interracial  Cooperation 
in  Kentucky.  Dr.  Claude  White,  an  Associate  in  the  Sunday  School 
Department  in  Virginia,  became  the  new  Sunday  School  leader  on 
June  fifteenth.  Rev.  Bill  Jackson,  an  Associate  in  the  Brotherhood 
Department,  has  been  named  by  the  Executive  Committee  to  serve  as 
Director  of  the  Department  of  Camps  and  Retreats,  effective  Janu- 
ary 1,  1968.  Mrs.  Mildred  Vick  became  "the  pool  secretary"  in  the 
Division,  October  first.  Her  services  will  be  available  on  an  as- 
signed basis  to  different  Departments  within  the  Division.  Other 
changes  are  reflected  in  the  reports  of  the  Department  Directors. 

Identification  of  the  Different  Programs  assigned  to  the  Divi- 
sion indicates  a  responsibility  for  the  following:  Sunday  School 
Promotion,  Vacation  Bible  School  Promotion,  Weekday  Bible  Study 
Promotion,  Training  Union  Promotion,  Brotherhood  Promotion, 
Woman's  Missionary  Union  Cooperation,  Church  Music  Promotion, 
Student  Work,  Audio-visual  Education  Service,  Church  Administra- 
tion Service,  Family  Ministry,  Church  Building  Planning,  Church

Baptist  State  Convention 


Library  Service,  Church  Recreation  Service,  Statistics  and  Survey, 
Vocational  Guidance,  Mentally  Retarded  Ministry,  Assembly  Opera- 
tion, and  Camps  and  Retreats. 

Ten  Departments  of  Work  channel  the  services  of  the  employed 
personnel  to  local  church,  associational  and  institutional  ministries. 
The  departments  are:  Sunday  School,  Training  Union,  Brother- 
hood, Woman's  Missionary  Union,  Church  Music,  Church  Planning, 
Statistics  and  Survey,  Student,  Camps  and  Retreats,  and  the  North 
Carolina  Baptist  Assembly. 

Monthly  Staff  Meetings  of  personnel  in  the  Division  are  held 
during  the  first  week  of  each  month.  While  much  remains  to  be 
accomplished,  these  meetings  have  resulted  in  improved  coordina- 
tion and  correlation  of  the  work.  An  indication  of  the  "team  spirit" 
being  developed  may  be  found  in  the  request  to  the  Convention 
that  Woman's  Missionary  Union  be  authorized  to  build  a  camp  on 
a  portion  of  the  CaRAway  property,  and  in  the  inclusion  of  the 
report  of  this  auxiliary  to  the  Convention  along  with  the  other  re- 
ports of  the  Departments  in  the  Division. 

Evaluation,  Experimentation  and  Personnel  Development  con- 
tinue to  be  major  emphases  of  the  Division. 

Two  Building  Programs  have  been  underway  that  have  had  at- 
tention from  the  Division  Director:  The  Student  Center  at  Green- 
ville, and  the  Auditorium  at  the  North  Carolina  Baptist  Assembly. 
The  dedication  of  the  Auditorium  is  scheduled  for  11:00  a.m., 
July  17,  1968,  during  the  second  Training  Union  Week  there. 

A  Look  at  the  Future  brings  dreams  of  improved  physical  fa- 
cilities at  Fruitland  Baptist  Camp  and  at  Camp  CaRAway.  An  ab- 
breviated golf  course  and  a  swimming  pool  will  enable  the  North 
Carolina  Baptist  Assembly  to  prove  more  meaningful. 

The  Objective  of  the  Division  is  to  assist  individuals,  churches, 
associations  and  institutions  in  their  effort  to  bring  God  and  man 
together  through  Jesus  Christ. 

The  Departments  in  this  Division  report  as  follows: 

1.  Sunday  School  Department 

Claude  W.  White,  Secretary 

The  resignation  of  Dr.  Herman  Ihley  as  Secretary  of  the  Sunday 
School  Department  became  effective  on  March  1,  1967.  The  new 
Secretary  assumed  the  position  on  June  15,  1967.  Consequently, 
the  activities  of  the  department  presented  here  do  not  give  a  com- 
plete picture.  However,  this  report  will  reflect  the  major  emphases 
of  the  year. 

Personnel 

The  Department  staff  presently  consists  of  Claude  W.  White,  Sec- 
retary, and  two  associates,  Mrs.  Myra  S.  Motley  and  Miss  Hilda  Mayo. 
Mrs.  Motley  leads  in  the  work  of  the  Vacation  Bible  School  and  is  the

and  in  the  ministry  to  the  mentally  retarded.  Mrs.  Charles  Chason  is 
the  office  secretary  and  Miss  Pat  Moore  the  assistant  office  sec- 
retary. 

The  ministry  of  the  department  is  greatly  enlarged  by  the  help  of 
20  qualified  special  workers  as  follows:  Extension:  Mrs.  R.  E.  Ag-

i;  The  work  of  the  department  is  further  enhanced  through  the 
leadership  of  ten  Regional  Superintendents.  These  are  as  follows: 
Rev.  George  H.  Cooke,  Rev.  John  Privott,  Rev.  G.  Scott  Turner,  Jr., 
Rev.  Alfred  Staley,  Mr.  Norman  Brisson,  Rev.  Billy  G.  Rivers, 
Rev.  Rexford  Campbell,  Rev.  William  Bowen,  Rev.  Zeb  Baker,  Rev. 
Robert  L.  Clegg  and  Rev.  James  M.  Lambert. 

|0  Activities  of  the  Department 

The  Sunday  School  Department  is  committed  to  helping  the 
churches  of  North  Carolina  to  fulfill  their  mission  as  New  Testa- 
ment churches.  The  assigned  tasks  are:  teach  the  Biblical  revela- 
tion, lead  in  reaching  all  prospects  for  the  church,  and  lead  all 
church  members  to  worship,  witness,  learn  and  minister  daily. 
The  entire  staff  of  the  State  Sunday  School  Department  is  dedi- 
cated to  these  tasks. 

In  its  effort  to  fulfill  the  responsibility  delegated  to  it,  the  Sunday 
School  Department  works  with  the  association  in  planning  and 
conducting  director-led  and  pastor-led  enlargement  campaigns,  cen- 
tral training  schools,  Bible  teaching  clinics,  age  group  workshops 
and  clinics  and  Vacation  Bible  School  clinics.  Help  is  also  pro- 
vided for  the  local  church  when  possible  and  practical.  This  help 
is  most  often  given  through  age  group  clinics,  particularly  as  an 
aid  to  the  church  upon  entering  a  new  building  or  when  the  or- 
ganization is  enlarged.  Assistance  is  also  provided  in  the  form  of 
church  library  conferences,  kindergarten  workshops  and  a  limited 
number  of  teaching  improvement  clinics. 

The  activities  of  the  staff  of  the  department  may  be  reflected 
in  this  partial  listing  of  projects  sponsored  during  the  year  1966-67: 

1  Bible  Conference  Week,  North  Carolina  Baptist  Assembly, 
Southport 

1  State-wide  Bible  Teaching  Clinic,  Charlotte 
1  State  Vacation  Bible  School  Clinic

In  addition  to  these  activities  through  the  association  and  state, 
the  department  assisted  in  enlargement  or  teaching  improvement 
projects  in  10  local  churches.  Elementary  conferences  were  held  in 
10  churches  and  kindergarten  conferences  were  held  in  3  churches. 

Staff  members  have  attended  seminars  at  the  Sunday  School 
Board  in  Nashville  for  associational  workers,  workers  with  the 
mentally  retarded,  workers  with  youth,  and  kindergarten  workers. 
The  staff  was  represented  at  the  two  Sunday  School  leadership 
weeks  and  the  Church  Library  Conference  at  Ridgecrest,  and  the 
associational  missionaries'  conference  at  Fruitland. 

The  numerous  personal  conferences,  telephone  consultations  and 
other  assistance  cannot  be  included  in  a  written  report. 

The  Vacation  Bible  School  is  a  part  of  the  ministry  of  the  Sunday 
School.  During  the  past  year  statistics  were  gathered  to  show  3,136 
schools.  Of  this  number  2,931  were  church  schools;  177  mission; 
and  88  Negro  schools.  Enrolment  figures  show  301,684;  professions 
of  faith  5,760;  and  mission  offerings  of  $60,624. 

The  State  Clinic  for  the  purpose  of  training  associational  leader- 
ship was  held  at  Wingate  College  January  9-11,  1967.  Sixty-seven 
associations  plus  three  from  the  General  Convention,  were  repre- 
sented by  348  persons.  Dual  conferences  were  offered  for  the  second 
year.  Sibley  C.  Burnett,  of  the  Sunday  School  Board,  along  with 
Miss  Neta  Stewart,  Miss  Elsie  Rives,  and  Mr.  Glynn  Hill  joined  the 
N.  C.  Sunday  School  Department  staff  in  conducting  the  confer- 
ences. Other  leaders  were:  Dr.  J,  Ivyloy  Bishop,  Plainview,  Texas; 
W.  J.  Cox,  Dallas,  Texas;  Mrs.  J.  H.  Mauney,  Wilmington;  Miss 
Shirley  Robertson,  Richmond,  Virginia;  Mrs.  J.  D.  Sapp,  Okla- 
homa; Mrs.  Alvis  Strickland,  Donelson,  Tennessee;  Mrs.  Lester  D. 
White,  Gastonia;  Mr.  Charles  Gatwood,  Raleigh;  Mr.  Ray  Childers, 
Brevard;  Mr.  Corbin  Cooper,  Raleigh  and  Dr.  Nathan  C.  Brooks,  Jr., 
Raleigh. 

The  Sunday  School  Department  assisted  16  associations  in  pro- 
viding summer  student  workers  during  June,  July  and  August. 
These  22  workers  were  trained  at  Gardner-Webb  College  along 
with  others  working  with  the  Department  of  Interracial  Work.  Dr. 


OF  North  Carolina 


105 


Julian  Pipkin,  Atlanta,  Georgia,  assisted  the  Department  with  the 
training  session.  The  22  workers  served  in  121  churches. 

The  State  Clinic  for  1968  is  scheduled  for  the  dates  of  January  8- 
10  at  Wingate  College. 

Looking  Ahead  to  1967-68 

1.  Enlargement.  Because  of  the  multitude  of  people  in  the  state 
who  are  not  enroled  in  Bible  study,  the  department  will  use  every 
possible  means  to  encourage  the  churches  to  emphasize  enlarge- 
ment. Several  associational  enlargement  campaigns  are  already  on 
[the  calendar.  It  is  hoped  to  increase  this  number.  The  staff  will 
promote  associational  one-day  growth  workshops.  There  is  a  goal  of 
40  such  workshops  during  the  year.  Several  of  these  are  already 
scheduled.  The  Church  Growth  Plan  with  its  emphasis  upon  reach- 
ing adults  as  a  means  of  reaching  other  members  of  the  family 
will  continue  to  be  a  major  tool  for  enlargement. 

2.  The  Sunday  School  Achievement  Guide.  This  will  be  a  year  of 
experimentation  with  the  Achievement  Guide  which  will  soon  re- 
place the  Standard  of  Excellence.  This  instrument  is,  in  every  sense 
of  the  word,  a  guide  based  upon  the  need  in  the  local  church. 
Every  opportunity  will  be  used  to  interpret  the  Guide  to  associa- 
tional and  local  church  leadership. 

3.  Training.  The  class  time  required  to  earn  study  course  credit 
has  been  lowered  to  6  hours.  This  should  result  in  more  training 
courses  being  offered  on  associational  and  local  church  level. 
The  Sunday  School  Department  will  seek  to  lead  every  church  to 
offer  courses  in  leadership  training  during  the  years. 

4.  Improvement  of  teaching.  The  department  will  seek  to  aid 
churches  in  lifting  the  level  of  teaching  in  the  Sunday  School. 
This  will  be  done  through  association-wide  teaching  clinics  and 
special  help  to  some  of  the  local  churches  where  possible.  Sunday 
School  enrolment  and  attendance  will  be  increased  in  proportion  to 
the  increase  of  the  number  of  qualified  teachers  in  the  classes  on 
Sunday  morning. 

5.  Crusade  of  the  Americas.  The  Sunday  School  will  play  a  vital 
role  in  the  Crusade  of  the  Americas.  The  Sunday  School  Depart- 
ment will  give  complete  cooperation  in  this  project  and  gladly 
accept  the  assignments  made  to  it.  The  area  conventions  in  1968 
will  place  major  emphasis  on  the  Crusade.  These  conventions  will 
be  held  as  follows: 

September    9  Scott's  Creek  Baptist  Church,  Sylva 
September  10  Lower  Creek  Baptist  Church,  Lenoir 
September  11  Green  Street  Baptist  Church,  High  Point 
September  12  Snyder  Memorial  Baptist  Church,  Fayetteville 
September  13  Memorial  Baptist  Church,  Williamston 

The  Sunday  School  Department  will  join  hands  with  the  Division 
of  Evangelism  in  the  Crusade  of  the  Americas  Rally  in  Durham  on 
September  24,  1968.

Baptist  State  Convention 


6.  Mission  Sunday  School  work.  Several  men  who  are  students 
at  Fruitland  Baptist  Bible  Institute  have  already  been  enlisted  to 
conduct  enlargement  campaigns  and  training  schools  in  a  number 
of  churches  in  June  of  1968.  In  this  way,  at  least  25  churches  which 
may  not  have  previously  participated  in  this  type  of  project  will  be 
reached  and  challenged  to  lift  the  level  of  Sunday  School  work. 

The  staff  vacancies  in  the  Sunday  School  Department  will  be  filled 
as  quickly  as  possible.  There  is  every  reason  to  expect  that  the 
year  will  be  marked  with  advances  in  every  area  of  the  Sunday  j 
School  program. 

2.  Training  Union  Department 

Sami  H.  O'Neal,  Secretary 

The  training  program  of  a  church  continues  to  be  one  of  the 
greatest  challenges  facing  Southern  Baptists.  This  unfolding  minis- 
try has  been  assigned  to  the  Training  Union  Department  and  now 
offers  new  hope  for  Southern  Baptists  in  the  field  of  religious 
education.  i 

The  task  of  interpreting  this  ministry  to  the  churches  continues 
to  be  one  of  the  foremost  jobs  for  the  Training  Union  Department. 
This  interpretation  is  done  through  the  curriculum  materials,  special 
periodicals,  supplementary  learning  materials,  free  helps,  and  other  j 
means  of  communication.  || 

Each  pastor  and  staff  member  should  study  carefully  the  materials 
related  to  the  Training  Ministry  of  the  church  in  order  to  keep  , 
abreast  with  this  vital  phase  of  the  total  church  program.  j 

The  Training  Union  Department  staff  stands  ready  to  assist  i 
every  church  possible  in  developing  its  membership.  The  Training 
Union  ministry  can  be  the  "in-reach"  ministry  for  every  local  Bap- 
tist church.  I 

Personnel 

This  has  been  the  year  of  change  for  personnel  in  the  Training 
Union  Department.  The  field  staff  consists  of  the  Secretary  and  j 
three  associates:  Rev.  K.  Maurice  Cooper,  Director  of  Associational  ji 
Promotion,  and  works  with  the  Department  Secretary  in  the  area 
of  Adult  Work  and  General  Administration;  Rev.  Davis  Bowen,  |; 
Director  of  Young  People's  Work  and  Consultant  in  Church  Recrea-  li 
tion  and  Vocational  Guidance;  Miss  Doris  Morgan,  Director  of  p 
Nursery-Beginner-Primary  Work  and  Consultant  in  the  area  of ' 
Church  Drama.  The  Department's  very  fine  and  capable  office  staff 
consists  of  Miss  Kaye  Frances  Currin,  Office  Secretary,  and  Mrs.  i 
Mary  Conn,  Assistant  Office  Secretary. 

The  Department  is  minus  one  field  staff  associate  at  the  present 
time.  During  the  year  this  department  experienced  the  loss  of  Miss 
Katy  Ruth  Grayson,  who  had  served  as  Director  of  Junior  and  In- 
termediate Work  for  approximately  seven  years. 

Approved  workers  are :  Mrs.  Smoot  Baker,  Lancaster,  South  Caro- 
lina, General  Administration  and  Age-Group  Work;  Mrs.  I.  V.

1967  Activities 

The  past  year  has  proved  to  be  one  of  the  busiest  years  in  recent 
times.  Many  churches  and  associations  have  requested  assistance  in 
interpreting  the  ministry  of  Christian  training.  This  has  been  most 
gratifying. 

The  on-going  program  included: 

1.  Ten  Regional  Convention  Planning  Meetings. 

2.  Ten  Regional  Conventions. 

3.  Eight  new  Training  Union  Concept  Manual  Interpretation 
Clinics. 

4.  Four  weeks  of  state  assemblies — three  at  North  Carolina  Bap- 
tist Assembly,  Southport,  and  one  at  Fruitland. 

5.  Annual  Training  Union  Youth  Convention. 

6.  Annual  Briefing  Meeting  for  Associational  Directors. 

7.  Eight  Area  Training  Meetings  for  Associational  Officers. 

8.  Numerous  Associational  Leadership  Schools,  Church  Enlarge- 
ment Campaigns,  and  Associational  Enlargement  Campaigns. 

Statistically  Speaking 

The  summer  program  consisted  of  four  assembly  weeks  with 
record  attendance:  North  Carolina  Baptist  Assembly — 2,284;  Fruit- 
land — 149;  Ridgecrest — 600.  A  total  of  3,033  people,  257  churches, 
and  61  associations  were  represented. 

Regional  Conventions  enrolled  2,527  people  from  68  associations 
and  331  churches. 

Registration  at  the  Youth  Convention  in  Boone  was  898  from 
107  churches  and  42  associations. 

"M"  Night  attendance  for  1966  was  25,589  from  1,496  churches 
with  1,192  pastors  and  1,032  Training  Union  Directors  in  attendance. 

Future  Plans 

The  year  1968  is  already  shaping  up  as  a  very  busy  year  for  the 
Training  Union  ministry.  Plans  include: 

1.  Church  Recreation  Leadership  Workshop,  Greensboro,  North 
Carolina,  January  26-27. 

2.  Youth  Convention,  Forest  Hills  Baptist  Church,  Raleigh,  North 
Carolina,  April  26-28. 

3.  Special  group  of  enlisted  students  to  work  with  churches  next 
summer  in  starting  new  training  programs  in  local  churches. 

4.  Special  Youth  Klesis  Conference,  North  Carolina  Baptist  As- 
sembly, August  12-17.

Baptist  State  Convention 


5.  Four  Pastors'  Training  Seminars,  September  30,  October  1, 
October  7,  October  8. 

6.  Special  conferences  at  the  assembly  for  Associational  Of- 
ficers, Church  Recreation,  Church  Drama,  and  a  conference 
for  workers  with  the  mentally  retarded. 

The  above  will  be  some  additions  to  the  regular  on-going  program. 

Finally,  the  great  need  continues  to  be  to  enhance  the  ministry  of 
(1)  New  Member  Orientation,  (2)  Church  Member  Training,  and 
(3)  Church  Leader  Training.

I.  Ministry  on  Campus 

The  Baptist  Student  Union  on  college  campuses  is  multi-faceted 
and  develops  distinguishing  characteristics  in  each  setting  which 
mark  it  as  a  creative  unit  capable  of  adapting  to  specialized  needs. 
This  being  so,  the  particular  organizational  expression  will  vary; 
however,  all  groups  operate  with  a  basic  philosophy  which  under- 
girds  student  work  in  North  Carolina. 

Worship  and  study,  service  and  fellowship  are  elements  of  the 
sustained  on-campus  ministry  of  the  BSU.  These  over-all  emphases 
issue  in  such  specifics  as  Bible  study,  worship  periods,  mission 
study  and  involvement,  forums,  discussions,  retreats,  focus  weeks, 
personal  evangelism,  service  opportunities  and  recreation.  Personal 
counselling  is  an  integral  part  of  the  on-campus  ministry. 

Baptist  Student  Centers  are  a  significant  means  for  enlisting, 
involving,  and  ministering  to  students.  Buildings  are  designed  and 
constructed  for  the  specific  purpose  of  student  ministry  and  are 
well  used  at  Duke,  UNC-Greensboro,  N.  C.  State  University,  Western 
Carolina  University,  and  Appalachian  State  University.  The  re- 
cently purchased  and  renovated  building  at  UNC-Chapel  Hill  is 
furthering  the  ministry  there  significantly.  The  new  building  at 
East  Carolina  University  will  be  finished  and  dedicated  within  the 
next  several  months. 

II.  Ministry  on  the  State  Level 

1.  The  new  year  was  begun  with  the  annual  Director's  Seminar, 
which  is  a  source  of  information,  stimulation,  and  revitalization 
for  the  campus  ministers.  The  meeting  originated  in  Raleigh  simul- 
taneously with  the  January  meeting  of  the  General  Board  and  was 
continued  at  a  conference  center  in  Black  Mountain.  Special  speakers 
and  guests  who  addressed  the  group  were:  Dr.  Claude  U.  Broach, 
Pastor,  St.  John's  Baptist  Church,  Charlotte;  Dr.  Nathan  C. 
Brooks,  Jr.,  Director,  Division  of  Church  Programs,  N.  C.  Baptist 
State  Convention;  Mr.  James  Daniel  of  the  Baptist  Sunday  School 
Board,  Nashville,  Tennessee;  and  Mr.  Howard  Rees,  Baptist  Chaplain 
for  the  University  of  Maryland  and  the  Washington,  D.  C.  area. 

2.  The  Third  Seminar  on  Christian  Social  Concerns  was  held  in 


OF  North  Carolina 


109 


New  York  City,  January  25-29,  with  forty-two  people  participat- 
ing. The  meeting  was  under  the  joint  sponsorship  of  the  Baptist 
Student  Department  of  North  Carolina  and  the  Christian  Life  Com- 
mission of  the  Southern  Baptist  Convention. 

The  purpose  of  this  seminar  is  to  promote  a  greater  awareness 
and  concern  in  regard  to  existing  social  problems  and  to  broaden 
the  scope  of  understanding  of  the  nature  of  the  world  in  which 
the  Christian  message  is  proclaimed. 

Highlights  of  the  trip  included  visits  to  the  United  Nations,  the 
Council  for  Christian  Social  Concerns  at  the  United  Church  of 
Christ,  the  Commission  on  Religion  and  Race  at  the  Interchurch 
Center,  Union  Theological  Seminary,  Teen  Challenge,  and  the  East 
Harlem  Protestant  Parish.  Unusual  opportunity  for  insight  into  the 
city  and  its  problems  came  through  a  pre-arranged  session  with 
representatives  of  the  New  York  City  Police  Force,  a  visit  to  the 
Police  Academy  and  a  tour  around  Manhattan  via  Police  Launch. 

3.  The  spring  Campus  Visitation  Tour,  March  12-17,  featured  Mr. 
Charles  A.  Webster,  a  Baptist  minister,  who  is  Director  of  the 
College  Program,  Southeastern  Region,  American  Friends  Service 
Committee.  Mr.  Robert  M.  Phillips,  Eastern  Area  Director,  co- 
ordinated the  nine  campus  tour  during  which  Mr.  Webster  spoke 
on  "Christianity  and  Extremism."  Approximately  2,000  students 
heard  and  discussed  this  issue  as  a  result  of  four  chapel  addresses, 
seven  group  discussions  and  one  classroom  lecture. 

4.  The  fall  Campus  Visitation  Tour  will  use  the  specific  theme  of 
"Summer  Opportunities."  Dr.  William  C.  Smith,  Jr.,  State  Secre- 
tary, Mr.  Robert  M.  Phillips,  Eastern  Area  Director,  and  Mr.  James  Y. 
Greene,  Interim  Baptist  Chaplain  at  Duke  University,  will  lead 
discussions  on  The  LISTEN  Team,  The  Apostoloi,  and  The  Bap- 
tist Youth  Corps,  respectively.  This  approach  will  give  students  a 
"headstart"  in  planning  a  meaningful  summer. 

5.  The  Leadership  Training  Conference  was  held  at  College  Park 
Baptist  Church  in  Greensboro,  April  14-16,  with  332  people  in 
attendance.  The  theme,  "God  and  Man  in  the  City,"  was  developed 
by  Mr.  James  D.  Shelton,  a  former  BSU  President  at  Duke  Uni- 
versity, who  is  currently  serving  as  the  Assistant  Director  of  the 
Metropolitan  Urban  Service  Training  Facility  in  New  York  City. 
Other  points  of  interest  during  the  meeting  were  the  Folk  Service 
of  Worship,  the  Coffee  House  Service  of  Worship,  the  Workshop 
Sessions  for  new  officers,  the  election  and  installation  of  State 
BSU  Officers  for  1967-68,  and  the  closing  communion  service  at 
the  Baptist  Student  Center,  UNC-Greensboro. 

The  BSU  Officers  for  1967-68  are:  President,  Paul  Wiggins,  Ap- 
palachian State  University;  Vice-President,  David  Smith,  Mars  Hill 
College;  Secretary,  Jean  Gurganus,  East  Carolina  University.  The 
positions  of  Music  Director  and  Publications  Editor  were  elected 
by  the  Executive  Committee.  David  Moore,  UNC-Chapel  Hill,  will 
head  the  area  of  music,  and  Mrs.  Kathy  Booth  Stewart,  Meredith 
College,  will  head  the  publications.

Baptist  State  Convention 


A  unique  and  special  feature  of  the  1967  Leadership  Conference 
was  the  fact  that  it  was  held  at  a  time  and  place  which  permitted 
participation  in  the  State  Christian  Convocation.  The  theme,  "God 
and  Man  in  the  City,"  was  continued  through  addresses  by  Dr. 
Anna  Arnold  Hedgeman,  Coordinator  of  Special  Events,  Commis- 
sion on  Religion  and  Race,  National  Council  of  Churches,  New 
York;  Dr.  Franklin  Littell,  President  of  Iowa  Wesleyan  College, 
Mt.  Pleasant,  Iowa;  and  Dr.  Howard  Moody,  Pastor,  Judson  Me- 
morial Church,  Greenwich  Village,  New  York  City. 

6.  The  Summer  Service  Program  had  a  three-pronged  emphasis  in 
1967: 

a.  The  LISTEN  (L-ove  I-mpels  S-acrifice  T-oward  E-very  N-eed) 
Program  concentrated  its  effort  at  the  Patterson  Avenue  Mission 
in  Winston-Salem  with  a  total  of  sixteen  students  and  leaders  par- 
ticipating during  the  summer.  Living  in  the  area  gave  the  students 
a  very  special  relationship  to  the  community  at  large.  This  em- 
pathetic  participation  in  the  life  of  the  people  allowed  an  extraordi- 
narily relevant  approach  to  issues  during  Vacation  Bible  School 
classes,  the  day-care  hours,  the  excursions  and  all  the  formal  and 
informal  encounters  which  ensued.  (It  is  reported  that  produce  is 
still  being  used  from  the  experimental  garden  planted  by  the 
students  and  neighborhood  children.)  On  other  deeper  levels,  the 
"carry-over"  from  such  a  full  and  essentially  unlimited  involvement 
as  was  given  here  is  inestimable. 

This  project  was  financed  by  North  Carolina  Baptist  students 
through  their  LISTEN  Campaign. 

b.  The  APOSTOLOI  is  the  name  which  designates  a  group  of 
students  sent  forth  to  "help  provide  student  leadership  in  a  week 
of  special  emphasis  in  churches  in  the  hope  that  persons  will  be 
challenged  by  the  Christian  faith  ...  to  live  as  mature  disciples  of 
Christ  in  today's  world."  There  were  two  four-member  teams  dur- 
ing the  summer  of  1967  and  each  team  was  prepared  to  present 
two  dramas,  Christ  In  The  Concrete  City  and  In  White  America. 
In  addition  to  working  in  twenty-two  churches  and  giving  nine 
special  dramatic  performances,  the  teams  spent  two  weeks  in  a 
Community  Service  Project  in  Frogmore,  South  Carolina. 

c.  The  Baptist  Youth  Corps  consisted  of  seventeen  young  people 
who  were  assigned  to  churches  requesting  a  worker  for  the  summer 
months.  The  young  people  served  in  many  capacities,  having  had 
their  abilities  and  interests  matched  with  the  specified  need  of  the 
churches  in  which  they  served.  Mr.  James  Y.  Greene,  Interim  Baptist 
Chaplain  at  Duke  University,  served  as  coordinator  for  this  group. 
The  climax  of  the  program  was  the  Senior  High  Conference  at  the 
North  Carolina  Baptist  Assembly.  Each  church  having  a  summer 
worker  participated  in  the  week  by  sending  a  delegation  of  senior- 
high  young  people  who  had  been  prepared  for  the  experience  by 
involvement  at  the  local  level.  The  theme  for  the  meeting  was, 
"What  Can  You  Believe?"  Mr.  Grady  Nutt,  Director  of  Alumni 


OF  North  Carolina 


111 


Affairs  and  Assistant  to  the  President,  Southern  Baptist  Theological 
Seminary,  Louisville,  Kentucky,  and  Mrs.  C.  C.  Warren,  Charlotte, 
were  featured  guest  speakers.  In  addition,  there  were  twenty-six 
discussion  leaders  and  special  assistants  on  hand. 

College  Preparation  Week,  a  special  orientation  week  for  college 
freshmen,  was  incorporated  into  the  Senior  High  Conference.  The 
theme  for  this  phase  of  the  program  was  "Go  From  Your  Father's 
House"  and  was  ably  discussed  by  Mr.  Edgar  D.  Christman,  As- 
sistant Chaplain  at  Wake  Forest  University. 

7.  The  State  Officers'  Retreat  was  held  at  Camp  CaRAway, 
August  20-25,  and  was  attended  by  approximately  seventy-five  peo- 
ple. Plans  were  made  for  the  coming  school  year  by  the  local 
campus  presidents,  elected  state  officers,  chaplains  and  depart- 
mental staff  members.  The  guest  lecturer  for  the  week  was  Reverend 
William  Cusack,  Counselor,  Alcoholics  Rehabilitation  Center,  Flor- 
ence, South  Carolina. 

8.  The  Thirty-Eighth  Baptist  Student  Convention  met  November 
3-5  at  the  First  Baptist  Church  and  Meredith  College  in  Raleigh. 
The  theme  of  the  meeting  was  "Unto  the  Least  of  These."  Students 
were  led  to  see  ways  and  means  for  effective  personal  ministry, 
both  on  and  off  campus,  through  lectures  and  discussion  groups. 
Featured  speaker  was  Dr.  Jack  Noffsinger,  Pastor  of  the  Knollwood 
Baptist  Church  in  Winston-Salem.  The  worship  leader  was  the 
Reverend  R.  A.  L.  Walker,  formerly  Director  of  Religious  Activities 
at  Meredith  College,  presently  a  graduate  student  in  Harvard 
Divinity  School. 

9.  The  Eleventh  International  Student  Conference  sponsored  an- 
nually by  the  Woman's  Missionary  Union  of  North  Carolina,  the 
Baptist  Student  Department  of  the  Southern  Baptist  Convention 
and  the  Baptist  Student  Department  of  North  Carolina,  continues  to 
grow  in  effectiveness  and  meaning. 

The  1967  Conference  will  be  held  at  Chowan  College,  Murfrees- 
boro,  North  Carolina,  during  the  Thanksgiving  Holidays,  Novem- 
ber 22-26. 

Dr.  C.  C.  Thomas,  Professor  of  Philosophy  at  Fayetteville  State 
Teachers'  College,  will  lead  the  discussions.  A  native  of  India,  Dr. 
Thomas  holds  degrees  from  Madras  University,  Asbury  Theological 
Seminary  and  Iowa  State  University,  and  has  done  post-graduate 
study  at  Cambridge  University,  Cambridge,  England. 

Approximately  one-fourth  of  the  group  will  consist  of  selected 
American  students.  Having  the  opportunity  to  communicate  with 
such  an  outstanding  company  of  individuals  is  an  exceptional  ex- 
perience and  the  occasion  should  be  prayerfully  remembered  by 
North  Carolina  Baptists. 

11.  The  Publications  Committee  of  the  State  Officers'  Council 
plans  to  continue  the  procedure  initiated  last  year  whereby  it  will 
issue  an  informational  periodical.  The  BSU-ness,  at  appropriate  in- 
tervals during  the  school  year.  The  Reveille  will  be  published  twice 


112 


Baptist  State  Convention 


during  the  year  as  a  journal  of  Christian  concern  featuring  creative 
student  writing,  art  and  photography. 

12.  The  State  BSU  Basketball  Tournament  is  a  function  which 
was  initiated  by  students  in  1966  and  has  become  a  point  of  en- 
thusiastic participation  on  many  campuses.  First  Baptist  Church, 
Marion,  was  the  host  church  for  the  1967  tournament  which  was  held 
March  31  and  April  1. 

III.  Other  Activities  and  Emphasis 

Student  Week  at  Ridgecrest  and  Glorieta,  On-To-College  Emphasis, 
and  Student  Night  at  Christmas  are  activities  sponsored  jointly  with 
the  Student  Department  of  the  Baptist  Sunday  School  Board,  the 
Student  Department  of  North  Carolina,  and  local  churches.  Missions 
Conferences  are  sponsored  jointly  with  the  Foreign  Mission  Board 
and  the  seminaries.

4.  Church  Music  Department 

Joseph  O.  Stroud,  Secretary 

In  many  ways  the  Church  Music  Department  has  had  its  most 
successful  year.  With  the  coming  of  Mr.  Charles  Gatwood  as  As- 
sociate January  1,  1967,  the  department  has  been  able  to  fill  many 
more  engagements  in  the  churches  and  associations.  His  first  year 
of  service  in  the  department  has  been  characterized  by  a  deep  sense 
of  cooperation  and  enthusiasm  for  the  work.  The  program  of  as- 
sociational  work  is  beginning  to  take  shape  and  is  proving  to  be  a 
bigger  help  to  the  churches.  It  is  now  being  emphasized  that  the 
associational  program  of  work  is  designed  to  help  the  churches. 
This  is  its  sole  purpose  and  function.  A  more  simplified  organization 
of  officers  is  being  promoted  and  all  the  projects  based  on  church 
needs. 

Miss  Joan  Puckett,  the  efficient  Office  Secretary,  is  continuing  to 
do  a  most  effective  job  in  running  the  office  while  Mr.  Stroud  and 
Mr.  Gatwood  fill  an  increasing  number  of  engagements  throughout 
the  state. 

The  three  weeks  of  music  study  at  the  North  Carolina  Baptist  ^ 
Assembly  and  Fruitland  Camp  were  the  best  attended  in  the  history 
of  the  department.  The  Youth  Music  Week,  Junior  Music  Camp, 
and  the  Church  Music  Leadership  Conference  had  quality  programs 
of  work  and  were  attended  by  1,829  persons  from  almost  every 
section  of  the  state.  The  entire  year  has  been  a  busy  one  with: 

Associational  and  Regional  Music  Schools 
Conferences  on  Worship  and  Hymn  Singing 
Choral  Reading  Clinics 
Associational  Officer  Training 

Music  Work  with  Other  Departments  of  the  Convention 
Assisting  Churches  in  Calling  Ministers  of  Music 
Music  in  Revivals 
Pamphlet  Ministry 
Summer  Assemblies 
Choir  Festivals 

The  Church  Music  Department  is  a  ministry  of  the  Division  of 
Church  Programs.  Its  objective  is  to  assist  the  churches  and  as- 
sociations in  establishing,  conducting,  enlarging,  and  improving  the 
music  program  in  the  churches.  It  is  at  the  disposal  of  every  church 
affiliated  with  the  Baptist  State  Convention  of  North  Carolina. 

5.  Church  Building  Planning  Department 

Richard  D.  Smith,  Secretary 

Churches  in  the  Baptist  State  Convention  of  North  Carolina  are 
building.  They  are  taking  time  to  plan  what  they  need  —  what 
they  need  now,  and  what  they  anticipate  they  will  need  within 
the  next  ten  to  twenty  years.  Those  churches  that  take  time  to 


8 


114 


Baptist  State  Convention 


plan  will  eventually  have  the  kind  of  facilities  that  will  provide 
adequate  space  for  teaching  and  proclaiming  the  Word  of  God. 

One  of  the  services  of  this  Department  is  to  study  the  immediate 
needs  and  to  provide  for  the  local  church  a  feasibility  study.  This 
is  a  rough  draft  of  the  Architecture  Department's  ideas  of  the  needs. 
Once  the  local  congregation  has  had  opportunity  to  study  these 
rough  drawings,  corrections  are  indicated  and  a  new  floor-plan 
study  is  made  for  that  local  church.  A  large  enough  architectural 
staff  in  Nashville  to  make  Detailed  Drawings  for  all  churches 
would  be  fine,  but  this  is  not  possible.  However,  a  floor-plan  study 
is  made  for  any  church  requesting  it.  Additional  assistance  is  pro- 
vided in  interior  decoration,  long-range  plot  plan  studies,  church 
libraries,  recreation,  and  information  on  auditorium  and  fellowship 
halls. 

In  the  last  two  years  an  attempt  has  been  made  to  survey  the 
churches  of  North  Carolina  that  have  built.  Appreciation  is  ex- 
pressed to  each  pastor  who  has  taken  time  to  supply  the  requested 
information.  Churches  in  the  open  country,  as  well  as  those  in 
downtown  areas,  are  seeking  to  up-grade  their  present  facilities 
and  to  provide  for  more  people.  In  a  day  and  time  when  there  is 
difficulty  in  maintaining  growth,  those  churches  that  have  pro- 
vided additional  education  space  are  experiencing  some  growth. 
Those  churches  that  are  providing  more  space  are  increasing  their 
mission  giving  and  meeting  the  needs  of  the  local  congregation  far 
better  than  they  had  previously. 

Good  attendance  has  prevailed  in  our  State  Building  Conferences 
— one  held  in  Raleigh  and  one  in  Greensboro.  Associational  Build- 
ing Conferences  have  been  conducted  in  many  places  during  the 
past  year.  Such  conferences  will  be  set  up  in  any  Association  in 
North  Carolina  when  the  invitation  arrives  for  such  a  meeting. 
At  least  two  hours  of  conference  would  be  provided  at  a  central 
location;  then  visits  would  be  made  to  any  individual  church  that 
so  requested. 

Assistance  in  promoting  a  church  building  fund  program  seems 
to  be  one  of  the  greatest  demands  made  upon  the  Department.  Ap- 
proved consultants  are  being  enlisted  and  trained.  These  consul- 
tants will  be  available  to  those  interested  in  raising  funds  for  a 
building  program. 

Even  as  it  takes  time  to  do  anything  well,  it  takes  time  for  the 
architect  to  make  his  drawings  and  it  takes  time  to  raise  money  for 
the  building  program.  Any  church  that  has  an  idea  of  building 
anytime  in  the  future  should  take  time  now  to  use  the  services  of 
this  Department,  and  begin  now  in  the  planning  stage  to  gain  some 
knowledge  of  its  exact  needs. 

6.  Brotherhood  Department 

J.  Edwin  Bullock,  Secretary 

The  basic  objective  of  a  Brotherhood  program  in  a  Baptist  Church 
is  leading  men,  young  men,  and  boys  to  a  deeper  commitment

:o  missions,  to  a  more  meaningful  prayer  life  for  missions,  and  to  a 
personal  involvement  in  missions.  The  Brotherhood  Department  of 
the  Baptist  State  Convention  has  as  its  major  objective  the  task 
of  assisting  the  churches  in  establishing  a  worthy  missions  program 
for  these  age  groups.  The  department  attempts  to  meet  this  objec- 
tive by  assisting  the  churches  in  any  new  mission  units,  strengthen- 
ing existing  mission  units,  and  seeking  to  discover  other  methods 
for  involving  men,  young  men,  and  boys  in  mission  study  and 
mission  action. 

Nineteen  sixty-seven  has  been  a  year  of  growth  for  the  Brother- 
hood program.  Not  only  have  a  good  many  new  mission  units  been 
organized  in  the  churches,  but  there  has  also  been  a  greater  emphasis 
on  mission  action.  More  of  the  units  are  providing  a  needed  minis- 
try. The  major  emphasis  has  been  on  training,  using  both  associa- 
tional  leadership  and  department  approved  workers.  This  leader- 
ship has  conducted  as  many  as  45  workshops  and  Royal  Ambassador 
basic  leadership  courses  in  the  state.  Two  specialist  training  pro- 
grams, one  at  Eagle  Eyrie,  Virginia  and  the  other  at  CaRAway 
have  made  it  possible  for  us  to  increase  our  force  of  approved 
workers  to  approximately  100. 

Special  programs  encouraging  the  churches  to  become  involved 
in  their  mission  tasks  this  year  were  the  Baptist  Men  and  Boy's 
Convention  in  Raleigh,  with  over  1,500  in  attendance,  the  weekend 
Royal  Ambassador  camps  at  CaRAway,  Family  Camping  Weekend, 
the  Retired  Men's  Retreat,  the  Royal  Ambassador  Counselor's  Re- 
treat, and  the  Baptist  Men's  Retreat.  The  first  missions  retreat  for 
Baptist  young  men,  ages  15-24,  is  planned  for  December  28-30  at 
CaRAway.  Another  program  highlighting  the  summer's  activities 
was  the  World  Mission's  Week  at  the  assembly  with  over  800  in 
attendance. 

Evidence  of  a  growing  concern  on  the  part  of  men  was  demon- 
strated in  a  mid-summer  meeting  of  a  group  of  men  from  across 
our  state  providing  in  their  local  communities  a  ministry  to  in- 
mates in  the  jails  and  prison  camps.  A  committee  was  selected 
by  these  men  from  this  group  for  the  purpose  of  establishing  some 
guidelines  for  this  ministry  as  well  as  establishing  a  statewide 
set-up  of  associational  coordinators  making  it  possible  to  enlarge 
the  ministry  to  the  families  of  the  inmates  in  other  communities. 
The  coordinators  will  also  assist  men  in  finding  jobs  and  getting 
a  good  start  after  release.  It  is  believed  that  a  successful  effort  in 
ministering  to  inmates  and  parolees  will  also  encourage  men  to 
minister  to  other  people  in  need  such  as  the  economically  disad- 
vantaged, the  alcoholic,  the  juvenile,  the  aged,  the  sick,  the  handi- 
capped, the  illiterate,  and  to  the  many  others  to  which  assistance 
in  meeting  their  particular  needs  will  bear  a  Christian  witness. 

Another  bright  spot  in  the  Brotherhood  program  during  this  past 
year  has  been  further  curriculum  developed.  Basic  manuals  for 
each  of  the  mission  action  units  are  now  in  the  Book  Store.  The 
Baptist  Men's  Journal  is  greatly  improved,  and  the  Guide  magazine 
has  proven  to  be  a  good  resource  for  mission  study.  The  Home 


116 


Baptist  State  Convention 


Mission  Board  has  joined  Brotherhood  and  Woman's  Missionary 
Union  in  developing  a  survey  for  discovering  mission  needs  and 
also  a  set  of  mission  action  guidebooks  showing  how  the  church 
can  use  the  mission  action  units  in  reaching  out  to  meet  the  needs 
of  the  people  around  the  world  as  well  as  in  the  community. 

The  Brotherhood  program  has  never  had  a  greater  challenge 
than  the  one  which  it  shares  with  the  Woman's  Missionary  Union 
in  helping  the  churches  develop  a  concern  for  people.  This  concern 
will  assuredly  bring  many  demands  for  unified  action,  and  it  is 
most  apparent  that  such  actions  stemming  out  of  heart-felt  concern 
can  mean  much  to  our  churches  during  this  coming  year. 

7.  Camp  CaRAway 

B.  W.  Jackson,  Manager 

Camp  CaRAway  experienced  a  good  year.  The  Royal  Ambassador 
camps  during  the  summer  brought  more  than  1,000  campers  from 
about  180  churches  across  the  state.  An  excellent  staff  of  counselors 
and  missionaries  provided  the  campers  with  a  rich  camping  ex- 
perience, as  well  as  a  look  at  missions. 

In  addition  to  the  camps,  the  facilities  have  had  wide  use,  bring- 
ing an  additional  2,800  people  for  various  conferences  and  retreats. 
These  meetings  have  included  Family  Camping  Weekend,  Chinese 
Students'  Spring  Retreat,  Silent  Workers'  Retreat,  Migrant  Work- 
ers' Retreat,  Men's  Retreat,  Weekend  Royal  Ambassador  Camps. 
Student  groups.  Deacon  Retreats  and  local  church  groups. 

Camp  CaRAway  has  winterized  facilities  for  one  hundred  people. 
These  are  arranged  to  provide  for  three  smaller  groups  at  a  time. 
Meals  can  be  served  by  the  camp,  or  small  groups  can  make  use 
of  kitchenettes  and  prepare  their  own  meals. 

Camp  CaRAway  is  available  to  serve  the  people  of  the  churches. 
Plan  to  use  it  as  you  have  a  need  for  a  retreat  or  conference  site. 

8.  North  Carolina  Baptist  Assembly 

Fred  J.  Smith,  Manager 

The  year  1967  was  the  biggest  and  best  year  yet  at  the  Assembly 
by  the  sea.  6,288  people  attended  the  summer  program.  2,343  took 
part  in  the  pre-post  season  and  one-day  conferences. 

Each  year  as  the  Assembly  is  discovered  by  different  people,  it  is 
hoped  that  they  will  be  inspired  by  some  part  of  the  activities  or  one 
of  the  worship  services  and  will  go  home  with  a  renewed  dedi- 
cation to  serve  God.  As  many  familiar  faces  return  again  to  the 
Assembly,  there  is  a  surge  of  confidence  that  the  new  people  will 
return  also.  Those  who  attend  each  year  find  that  the  Assembly  is 
a  place  where  they  can  study  and  witness  of  God;  where  they  can 
relax  in  the  tranquil  motion  of  the  surroundings;  and,  later  join  in 
the  swift-moving  tide  of  recreational  activities. 

Appreciation  is  felt  for  the  help  each  department  in  Raleigh  has 
given.  They  are  thanked  for  their  loyalty  and  cooperation.

Eighty-five  staff  members  worked  to  provide  for  the  guests. 
Many  of  these  have  been  at  the  Assembly  previously.  Gratitude  is 
expressed  for  their  cooperation  and  support. 

The  air-conditioned  classrooms  and  chapel  were  among  the  most 
enjoyable  features  at  the  Assembly  in  1967.  New  furniture  was 
added  in  some  of  the  buildings. 

The  new  Auditorium  will  be  ready  for  the  opening  of  the  1968 
season.  The  Auditorium  will  be  one  of  the  greatest  assets  of  the 
Assembly.  It  will  seat  a  thousand,  with  complete  heating  and  air- 
conditioning  facilities. 

Improvements  are  underway  on  the  campus.  Some  buildings  are 
being  rewired.  Nearly  all  of  them  are  being  painted.  Additional 
shrubbery  and  flowers  are  planned. 

Plans  are  to  expand  the  recreational  facilities  for  1968.  Swim- 
ming, fishing,  Softball,  basketball,  and  tennis  are  offered  now.  A 
new  swimming  pool  is  anticipated  sometime  in  the  future. 

Individuals  and  churches  should  start  making  plans  early  for 
reservations  at  the  Assembly  in  1968.  For  information  write  the 
North  Carolina  Baptist  Assembly,  Southport,  North  Carolina. 

9.  Fruitland  Baptist  Camp 

E.  Gary  Harthcock,  Director 
Alex  L.  Booth,  Jr.,  Associate  Director 

The  twenty-second  Fruitland  Camp  season  ended  August  12  with  a 
total  enrollment  of  1,491  campers.  There  were  eight  weeks  of  camp, 


beginning  June  19.

A  major  change  is  in  prospect  in  the  camp  ministry  at  Fruitland 
The  WMU  plans  to  begin  its  GA  camp  program  at  a  new  site  in  the 
summer  of  1969.  In  recent  years  there  have  been  six  weeks  of  GA 
camps  at  Fruitland.  Plans  are  being  formulated  to  offer  an  attractive 
program  at  Fruitland  for  an  eight-week  camp  period  each  summer. 


*  This  was  a  new  type  of  conference  which  enrolled  adults  only.  The  family 
type  conference  in  1965  enrolled  250  and  the  same  type  conference  in  1966  had 
240.

10.  Department  of  Statistics  and  Survey 

Ted  W.  Williams,  Secretary 

Much  of  the  work  of  the  department  is  the  same  each  year. 
Regular  responsibilities  include  the  keeping  of  current  mailing  lists, 
distribution  of  statistical  forms  for  church  and  associational  clerks 
and  receiving  these  forms  for  processing  and  preparation  of  data 
for  publication  in  the  convention  annual,  preparation  of  directories 
that  appear  in  the  latter  part  of  the  annual,  and  supervision  of 
the  distribution  of  the  annual. 

The  department  prepares  the  Baptist  Diary  and  supervises  its 
distribution. 

During  the  year  the  department  worked  with  a  special  com- 
mittee in  a  study  of  salaries  and  fringe  benefits  of  Associational 
Superintendents  of  Missions.  The  results  were  published  in  booklet 
form  and  was  entitled  "Heartbeat  in  Missions."  The  department  is 
working  in  cooperation  with  the  Department  of  City  and  Metro- 
politan Missions  in  a  continuing  study  of  the  metropolitan  areas  of 
North  Carolina.  Also,  several  other  specialized  studies  are  in  prog- 
ress. 

Many  calls  have  come  for  help  in  planning  and  conducting  various 
types  of  surveys.  Among  these  was  an  associational-wide  survey  in 
the  Wilmington  Association  and  a  city-wide  survey  of  Kernersville. 
Large  surveys  planned  for  1968  include  telephone  surveys  in  Ra- 
leigh Association  and  Yates  (Durham)  Association.  The  latter  is  in 
cooperation  with  all  denominational  groups  as  was  the  survey  in 
Kernersville. 

The  department  is  appreciative  of  every  opportunity  for  service. 

E.  WOMAN'S  MISSIONARY  UNION 

Auxiliary  to  the  Baptist  State  Convention  of  North  Carolina 
Miriam  J.  Robinson,  Executive  Secretary 

Lists  of  officers  mailed  to  the  office  of  North  Carolina  Woman's 
Missionary  Union  indicate  that  there  are  currently  11,108  WMU 
organizations  in  the  state,  including: 

2,547  Woman's  Missionary  Societies 
1,431  Young  Woman's  Auxiliaries 
3,765  Girls'  Auxiliaries 
3,365  Sunbeam  Bands 

76  associations  report  some  kind  of  associational  WMU  organization. 

Since  the  WMU  year  ends  September  30,  the  Annual  Reports 
from  churches  and  associations  are  not  received  in  the  state  office 
in  time  to  be  compiled  for  this  Advance  Book  of  Reports.  The 
compiled  report  for  the  year  September  30,  1966  to  October  1, 
1967  will  be  printed  in  the  Advance  Book  of  Reports  of  the  State 
WMU  Annual  Session  distributed  at  its  meeting  in  Asheville,  March 
12-14,  1968  and  after  that  date  will  be  mailed  to  anyone  else  upon 
request.

One  or  more  State  WMU  representatives  have  been  into  42  as- 
sociations during  the  year  for  some  kind  of  assistance:  leadership 
training,  associational  meetings,  executive  board  meetings,  youth 
rallies,  etc.  It  is  encouraging  that  in  an  increasing  number  of  in- 
stances the  associational  leaders  themselves  are  training  the  local 
leaders.  The  State  WMU  encourages  this  by  providing  two  Annual 
Workshops  for  Associational  WMU  Leaders  in  different  parts  of 
the  state,  and  mailing  further  suggestions  to  the  associational  of- 
ficers quarterly.  This  year  469  associational  WMU  leaders,  represent- 
ing 61  associations  attended  the  State  WMU  Workshops  for  Associa- 
tional Leaders  held  at  Wilson  (190)  and  Morganton  (279).  They 
received  four  hours  of  training  for  their  respective  age  groups  and 
were  supplied  with  outlines  and  materials  to  help  in  conducting 
leadership  conferences  in  their  own  associations. 

The  inspirational  and  educational  value  of  STATEWIDE  GATH- 
ERINGS motivated  the  following  meetings  in  an  attempt  to  teach 
missions  and  inspire  more  people  to  become  more  involved  in 
missions.  Numerous  missionary  speakers  were  on  each  program: 

State  YWA  Convention  in  Charlotte,  a  rainy,  icy  weekend  in 
February,  attended  by  more  than  1,000  girls  and  their  leaders. 

Annual  Session  of  North  Carolina  Woman's  Missionary  Union  held 
in  March  in  Wait  Chapel  of  Wake  Forest  College,  Winston-Salem, 
with  1,851  delegates  and  visitors  registered.  This  attendance  was 
smaller  than  customary,  perhaps  due  to  the  fact  that  the  date  had 
to  be  changed  in  order  to  secure  the  use  of  the  Chapel  during 
spring  holidays  of  the  school. 

1,600  GAs,  plus  a  staff  of  27  college  girls,  participated  in  10 
week-long  missionary  camps  at  N.  C.  Baptist  Assembly  and  at  Fruit- 
land,  where  numerous  professions  of  faith  in  Christ  and  commit- 
ment to  special  Christian  service  were  made. 

49  YWAs  attended  a  week's  camp  at  the  Assembly  as  a  part  of 
N.  C.  World  Missions  Week.  Woman's  Missionary  Union  did  not 
participate  in  this  week  this  year  except  by  providing  GA  and 
YWA  activities.  The  reason  for  this  was  that  the  dates  conflicted 
with  the  World  Missions  Conference  held  at  Ridgecrest,  promoted 
by  the  Woman's  Missionary  Union,  Brotherhood,  Home  and  Foreign 
Mission  Boards  of  the  Southern  Baptist  Convention.  State  WMU 
leaders  and  a  large  number  of  North  Carolinians  took  advantage  of 
this  opportunity,  which  will  become  an  annual  event,  alternating 
between  Ridgecrest  and  Glorieta.  In  1968  it  will  be  in  Glorieta. 

The  State  WMU  office  tries  to  acquaint  associational  WMU  lead- 
ers, pastors  and  others  with  the  furloughing  missionaries  available 
as  possible  speakers  for  meetings  in  the  state. 

From  the  Heck- Jones  Memorial  Offering  for  WMU  Promotion, 
gifts  amounting  to  $900  in  cash  have  been  given  to  the  following  na- 
tive North  Carolina  women  upon  their  appointment  by  the  respective 
Boards :

Martha  McAlister  (Lenoir)  to  Ghana 

Home  Mission  Board  US-2  Worker:  ($50) 
Mrs.  James  Hardin,  Jr.  (Shelby)  to  Hawaii 

Also  from  this  offering  25  students  from  Nursing  Schools  in  North 
Carolina  were  sent  to  the  Medical  Missions  Conference  in  Richmond, 
sponsored  by  the  Foreign  Mission  Board. 

This  year  a  venture  of  tremendous  scope  was  initiated:  the  build- 
ing of  a  North  Carolina  Woman's  Missionary  Union  Camp,  hopefully 
to  be  completed  for  occupancy  by  1969.  This  will  replace  the  use 
of  the  Fruitland  facilities  that  have  heretofore  been  used  for  GA 
camps  in  the  western  part  of  the  state.  At  the  January  WMU  Execu- 
tive Board  meeting  the  president,  Mrs.  R.  Knolan  Benfield,  appointed 
the  following  WMU  Camp  Committee: 

Mrs.  A.  L.  Parker,  Greensboro,  Chairman 

Mrs.  Gilmer  Cross,  Goldsboro 

Mrs.  Perry  Starnes,  Hickory 

Mrs.  W.  M.  Murray,  Wilmington 

Mrs.  A.  L.  Stancil,  Rocky  Mount 

Mrs.  T.  A.  Lineberger,  Connelly  Springs 

Mrs.  W.  K.  Sturdivant,  North  Wilkesboro 

After  thorough  investigation  of  possibilities,  over  an  extended  period 
of  time,  the  Camp  Committee  presented  to  the  State  WMU  Executive 
Board  a  recommendation  which  was  approved:  that  it  request 
permission  of  the  General  Board  of  the  Baptist  State  Convention  to 
build  a  State  WMU  Camp  on  130  acres  of  land  on  the  southwest 
portion  of  the  area  owned  by  the  Baptist  State  Convention  across 
the  road  from  that  occupied  by  Camp  CaRAway,  near  Asheboro. 
This  request  was  approved  by  the  General  Board  at  its  meeting  in 
July  and  will  be  presented  as  a  recommendation  of  the  General 
Board  to  the  Baptist  State  Convention  in  Asheville  in  November. 
The  Convention  will  continue  to  own  the  land.  The  building  of  the 
camp  will  be  financed  by  North  Carolina  Woman's  Missionary  Union, 
at  a  cost  not  to  exceed  $250,000,  to  be  paid  from  the  Heck-Jones 
Memorial  Offering  for  WMU  Promotion  and  individual  contribu-

tions.  In  their  enthusiasm  for  the  new  project,  this  summer's  GA 
campers  contributed  a  total  of  $2,067  to  begin  this  fund.  The  camp 
will  be  for  the  use  of  all  State  WMU  organizations  as  scheduling 
will  permit.  The  plans  at  present  do  not  make  provision  for  winteriz- 
ing any  portion  of  it. 

A  closer  working  relationship  is  developing  between  WMU  or- 
ganizations and  the  other  church  program  organizations.  This  is 
seen  both  in  local  and  associational  planning  and  promotion.  In  the 
Baptist  State  Convention,  Woman's  Missionary  Union  cooperates 
fully  in  the  plans  of  the  Division  of  Church  Programs  under  the 
able  leadership  of  Dr.  Nathan  Brooks. 

It  is  hard  to  measure  growth  in  world  awareness  and  spiritual 
concern.  It  is  disheartening  to  note  the  slow  (if  any)  statistical 
growth  in  organizations  and  membership,  to  see  organizations  that 
consist  only  of  a  group  of  officers  who  reluctantly  accepted  respon- 
sibilities and  are  doing  little  to  fulfill  them,  and  the  many  leader- 
ship positions  which  remain  vacant.  On  the  other  hand,  a  large 
majority  of  WMU  organizations  in  North  Carolina  have  had  at 
least  one  mission  study  class  during  the  year,  an  increasing  number 
are  having  five-day  observances  of  the  weeks  of  prayer  for  foreign 
and  home  missions  and  a  special  state  missions  program.  These 
three  special  offerings  are  promoted  on  a  churchwide  basis  with 
purposeful  enthusiasm  in  well  over  half  of  the  churches.  Mission 
action  is  seen  in  the  numerous  mission  Vacation  Bible  Schools  and 
mission  Sunday  Schools  being  conducted.  Good  Will  Centers  estab- 
lished, the  sick  visited,  and  the  lost  being  led  to  the  Saviour.  Both 
the  adult  and  youth  organizations  that  constitute  Woman's  Mis- 
sionary Union  are  earnestly  seeking  to  .  .  Grow  in  grace  and  in 
the  knowledge  of  our  Lord  and  Saviour  Jesus  Christ"  .  .  .  and  in 
many  instances  and  areas  this  growth  is  visible  if  not  always  measur- 
able. 

F.  DIVISION  OF  STEWARDSHIP  PROMOTION 

O.  J.  Hagler,  Director 

The  reports  of  the  various  departments  of  the  Division  of  Steward- 
ship Promotion  indicate  a  busy  year.  The  preparation  of  promo- 
tional materials,  field  work  in  the  churches  and  the  associations, 
and  routine  office  procedure  have  kept  all  members  of  our  staff 
fully  occupied. 

The  Director  has  given  much  time  to  planning  and  supervising 
in  the  work  of  all  areas. 

Time  in  the  field  has  been  somewhat  limited.  The  accumulation 
of  hundreds  of  photographs  and  material  for  our  80-page  color 
brochure,  A  Pictorial  Story  of  North  Carolina  Baptists,  has  taken 
many  hours.  It  is  our  purpose  to  have  this  booklet  in  the  process 
of  distribution  as  we  meet  in  Convention  in  Asheville. 

Special  credit  should  be  given  to  Mr.  L.  J.  Morriss  for  providing 
hundreds  of  excellent  photographs  for  our  selection.  Ben  Fisher  of 
the  Council  on  Christian  Education;  Bob  Walker,  Assistant  Ad-

Baptist  State  Convention 


ministrator,  Baptist  Hospital;  Toby  Druin,  of  the  Biblical  Recorder; 
and  Eugene  Baker,  Public  Relations  Director  of  the  North  Carolina 
Baptist  Children's  Homes,  have  been  of  invaluable  assistance  in  this 
undertaking. 

The  rate  of  our  giving  through  the  Cooperative  Program  and  for 
special  causes  seems  to  have  reached  a  "plateau."  Gifts  from  the 
churches  have  pretty  well  paralleled  the  general  economy.  Not 
since  1963  has  this  rate  of  growth  dipped  to  as  low  as  1.66  percent 
over  the  previous  year.  Economists  of  authority  are  now  indicating 
that  we  are  in  a  period  of  business  and  industrial  acceleration.  As 
this  increase  begins  to  make  itself  felt  in  the  mainstream  of  our 
economy,  and  as  we  respond  to  the  General  Secretary's  challenge 
to  the  churches  to  increase  Cooperative  Program  giving  by  at  least 
10  percent,  we  expect  the  rate  of  growth  to  return  to  its  normal 
pattern.  Looking  back  over  a  period  of  nearly  ten  years  we  have 
averaged  an  increase  of  about  five  to  six  percent  over  the  previous 
year. 

In  the  face  of  challenging  opportunity  we  must  and  will  respond 
to  the  challenge  of  responsible  Christian  stewardship. 

1.  Department  of  Stewardship  Development 

R.  Tom  Greene,  Secretary 

The  development  of  materials  for  promotion  of  scriptural  steward- 
ship and  Cooperative  Program  enlistment  is  the  basic  function  of 
this  department.  The  work  during  the  past  year  may  be  divided  as 
follows : 

I.  Leaflets 

We  have  developed  in  cooperation  with  Mr.  O.  J.  Hagler  and 
others  in  this  division,  and  distributed  leaflets  as  follows: 

235,000  Basic  Cooperative  Program  leaflets  and  posters. 
189,000  State  Missions  leaflets  and  posters. 

278,000  Other  leaflets  and  booklets  on  Stewardship  and  the  Co- 
operative Program. 

II.  Seminars 

We  held  Development  Seminars  for  leaders  from  each  association. 
During  the  seminars  we: 

1.  Explained  and  distributed  the  latest  materials  on  Biblical  stew- 
ardship and  Cooperative  Program. 

2.  Received  the  wise  suggestions  from  these  officers. 

III.  Workshops 

Workshops  in  Stewardship  Development  were  held  for  the  pastor 
and  treasurer  of  each  church  in  twenty  one  associations.  The  purpose 
was: 

1.  Give  a  bird's-eye  view  of  Stewardship  material  available  to 
help  these  church  leaders  develop  scriptural  stewards.

2.  Answer  any  questions  concerning  the  Stewardship  programs 
and  the  Cooperative  Program. 

3.  Give  encouragement  to  these  leaders  to  use  one  or  more  of 
these  programs  for  the  benefit  of  their  churches. 

IV.  Articles,  Art,  and  Reports 

We  wrote  articles  and  developed  art  on  Cooperative  Program, 
Stewardship  and  State  Missions  for  the  Biblical  Recorder  in  co- 
operation with  Mr.  Marse  Grant,  Editor. 

We  published  in  the  August  19  issue  of  the  Biblical  Recorder 
the  Cooperative  Program  giving  of  each  church  for  the  first  six 
months  of  1967  and  made  it  available  in  each  annual  associational 
meeting.  In  this  same  Biblical  Recorder  issue  were  fourteen  articles 
describing  some  of  the  work  North  Carolina  Baptists  do  through 
the  Cooperative  Program. 

V.  Other  Areas  of  Work 

We  have  answered  the  requests  of  many  churches  needing  help 
in  developing  Biblical  Stewards  and  Cooperative  Program  giving. 

During  the  past  twelve  months  in  doing  this  work  for  you  in 
Christ's  name,  there  were  fourteen  added  by  baptism  to  the  churches 
for  which  I  preached  and  sixteen  by  letter. 

Dr.  W.  Perry  Crouch,  General  Secretary-Treasurer  of  our  Con- 
vention, Mr.  O.  J.  Hagler,  Director  of  the  Division  of  Stewardship 
Promotion,  and  the  other  personnel  in  this  division  have  given  wise 
counsel  and  help  in  all  the  work  of  this  department.  Mrs.  Susan 
Cochrane,  office  secretary,  has  given  valuable  help  in  our  common 
task. 

To  those  above,  plus  each  pastor,  associational  leader.  General 
Board  member,  and  our  entire  Convention  staff,  we  express  our 
thanks  for  their  genuine  cooperation. 

2.  Department  of  Stewardship  Promotion 

Harold  M.  White,  Secretary 

The  primary  objective  of  this  department  continues  to  be  service 
to  churches  and  associations  in  basic  stewardship  promotion  and 
development.  Cooperative  Program  promotion,  workshops  and  train- 
ing sessions  in  the  Forward  Program  and  the  Growth  in  Christian 
Stewardship  program.  Deacons'  Schools  and  Stewardship  Revivals 
have  offered  our  best  opportunities  for  service. 

We  are  happy  to  report  that  more  churches  used  an  effective 
stewardship  emphasis  in  connection  with  budget  planning  and  pro- 
motion in  1967  than  in  any  previous  year.  As  a  result  spiritual  life 
was  deepened  and  larger  financial  resources  were  available  to  meet 
local  and  world  needs. 

At  the  request  of  Dr.  W.  Perry  Crouch,  General  Secretary- 
Treasurer  of  our  Convention  and  Mr.  O.  J.  Hagler,  Director  of  the 
Division  of  Stewardship  Promotion,  this  department  is  cooperating 


124 


Baptist  State  Convention 


with  all  staff  members  in  urging  the  churches  to  increase  their 
gifts  through  the  Cooperative  Program  by  10  percent  in  1968.  This 
increase  is  necessary  to  give  adequate  support  to  Convention  causes 
in  the  face  of  rising  costs. 

In  discharging  my  responsibilities  I  work  closely  with  the  General 
Board's  Committee  on  Stewardship  Promotion,  the  Stewardship 
Commission  of  the  Southern  Baptist  Convention  and  with  all  staff 
members  of  this  division  in  the  development  of  a  total  Steward- 
ship program. 

I  am  grateful  for  the  assistance  of  E.  Cleve  Wilkie,  Kinston,  As- 
sociate in  Field  Promotion  and  Mrs.  Dorothy  Smith,  office  secre- 
tary. 

Mr.  O.  J.  Hagler,  Division  Director,  continues  to  give  helpful 
supervision  and  direction  which  is  deeply  appreciated. 

I  would  like  to  express  my  thanks  also  to  pastors,  superintendents 
of  missions,  associational  leaders  and  staff  members  for  excellent 
cooperation. 

3.  Department  of  Stewardship  Promotion 

Cleve  Wilkie,  Field  Worker 

Though  the  center  of  my  work  is  Eastern  Carolina,  I  continue 
to  enjoy  a  statewide  ministry,  as  a  look  at  last  year's  activities 
reveals  trips  and  services  in  every  area  of  our  great  state. 

The  record  shows  that  I  served  in  some  capacity  in  134  different 
churches  during  the  year.  These  services  included  pulpit  supply, 
Schools  for  Deacons,  Forward  Program  Clinics  and  committee  train- 
ing. Stewardship  Growth  Program  clinics  and  committee  training. 
Loyalty  Dinners  and  Fellowship  Suppers,  Schools  of  Missions,  Cen- 
tral Stewardship  Training  Schools,  Stewardship  Conventions,  Stew- 
ardship Week-end  Revivals,  Stewardship  Week-long  Revivals,  Evan- 
gelistic Revivals,  Bible  Study  Weeks,  Homecoming  and  Harvest  Day 
sermons,  W.M.U.  study  courses,  R.A.  Camp  mission  study.  Deacon 
ordination  services,  Brotherhood  Stewardship  addresses,  and  sev- 
eral other  special  meetings  too  numerous  to  list. 

Many  denominational  meetings,  for  inspiration  and  information, 
in  and  out  of  the  state,  have  been  attended  with  great  profit  to  me 
in  the  work. 

It  has  been  a  joy  to  continue  in  the  work  with  my  associates  in 
the  Stewardship  Division,  especially  O.  J.  Hagler,  and  Harold  White, 
who  impart  direction  and  inspiration  to  my  labors. 

I  sincerely  thank  our  Baptist  people  for  the  privilege  of  service. 

4.  Department  of  Program  Services 

Jimmy  Morriss,  Secretary 

The  Department  of  Program  Services  promoted  the  total  Baptist 
program  through  the  divisions  of  the  General  Board,  agencies,  in- 
stitutions, and  associations.  It  is  a  department  that  is  primarily  pub- 
lic relations  and  is  incorporated  in  the  Division  of  Stewardship 
Promotion.  The  work  of  the  department  may  be  divided  as  follows: 


OF  North  Carolina 


125 


I.  AUDIO  VISUAL  AIDS 

A.  Film  Library 

During  the  past  year,  the  department  booked  more  than  12,000 
free  rental  films.  We  estimate  that  approximately  60  percent  of 
the  churches  in  the  Convention  are  using  audio-visuals  regularly. 
The  department  encourages  planning  for  a  basic  library  of  audio- 
visuals  at  both  associational  and  church  levels,  with  supplementary 
services  provided  by  the  department  library.  At  present,  this  library 
has  over  2,500  titles  covering  every  area  of  denominational  endeavor. 

B.  Film  Production 

This  year  the  department  produced  a  new  35mm  color  filmstrip, 
NEW  DIMENSIONS  IN  MISSIONS,  in  support  of  State  Missions. 
Over  500  pictures  on  all  areas  of  Convention  ministries  were  pro- 
duced for  use  in  tlie  forthcoming  brochure,  "A  Pictorial  Story  of 
North  Carolina  Baptists." 

C.  Communication  Demonstration  Conferences 

At  the  request  of  the  associations  and  churches,  a  number  of 
"one-night  stand"  demonstrations  were  held.  More  than  40  churches 
were  assisted  in  sight  and  sound  planning  in  building  and  remodeling 
programs. 

D.  Audio  Aids 

More  than  1,500  messages  were  taped  in  answer  to  requests  by 
the  churches  this  year.  State  Mission  tapes  were  supplied  to  each 
of  the  associations  with  a  large  number  being  booked  through  this 
office  on  a  free  rental  basis. 

II.  GRAPHIC  ARTS 

Over  300  individual  lay-outs  were  designed  and  prepared  for 
printing  this  year.  These  included  programs,  posters,  folders,  forms 
and  stationery. 

III.  NEWS  SERVICE 

Our  responsibility  to  provide  news  coverage  of  state  Baptist  work 
to  some  485  newspapers,  radio  and  television  stations,  culminated 
in  at  least  50  articles  for  state-wide  release.  Complete  pictorial  and 
news  coverage  on  State  Missions  was  provided  to  the  Biblical  Re- 
corder and  to  Charity  and  Children, 

IV.  TELEVISION  AND  RADIO 

The  department  continues  to  produce  the  network  series,  A 
LIGHT  UNTO  MY  PATH,  a  mission  work  of  the  Convention  de- 
signed to  reach  the  deaf,  the  aging  and  the  unchurched.  The  pro- 
gram is  presented  over  a  state-wide  network  including  WRAL-TV, 
Raleigh;  WECT-TV,  Wilmington;  WLOS-TV,  Asheville;  WFMY-TV, 
Greensboro;  WBTV,  Charlotte;  and  WNCT-TV,  Greenville.  Also  pro- 
viding coverage  for  North  Carolina  Baptists  are  WTVC-TV,  Chatta- 


126 


Baptist  State  Convention 


nooga,  Tennessee  and  WIS-TV,  Columbia,  South  Carolina.  The  series 
is  carried  by  ten  other  stations  outside  North  Carolina,  sponsored  by 
a  church  or  a  Convention  in  that  state.  Also  produced  are  BIBLE 
STORY  TIME,  a  weekly  program  for  pre-school  children,  and 
CHURCH  OF  OUR  FATHERS,  a  weekly  30  minute  news  program. 
The  department  also  works  closely  with  the  Southern  Baptist  Radio 
and  Television  Commission. 

V.  OTHER  AREAS 

The  department  has  two  approved  summer  workers  at  the  summer 
assemblies  showing  more  than  300  film  presentations  each  season. 

5.  Annuity  Department 

Guy  S.  Cain,  Secretary 

The  new  Southern  Baptist  Protection  Program  officially  goes  into 
effect  on  January  1,  1968,  although  the  benefits  under  it  are  being 
given  currently.  The  new  program,  made  up  of  three  plans,  Plan 
"A,"  Plan  "B"  and  Plan  "C,"  provides  substantial  increases  in  bene- 
fits formerly  offered,  as  well  as  new  benefits. 

The  increased  benefits  in  Plan  ''A"  include: 

1.  Disability — Is  the  same  amount  the  member  would  have  re- 
ceived at  age  65,  with  no  maximum.  Previously,  disability  pro- 
vided a  maximum  of  $900  a  year. 

2.  Widow — Benefit  may  be  40  percent  of  the  amount  a  member 
would  get  at  age  65.  Widow  benefits  previously  were  on  a 
step-up  basis  taking  six  years  to  reach  maximum  coverage. 

3.  Retirement — Additional  retirement  benefits  may  be  obtained 
by  participating  in  Plan  "B"  and/or  Plan  "C." 

New  Benefits  Added  to  Plan  "A" 

1.  Child  Benefit — Each  unmarried,  dependent  child  (up  to  four) 
under  age  18  will  get  this  benefit  as  follows: 

a.  If  a  member  dies  or  becomes  disabled  or  retires  at  age  65  or 
after,  each  child  will  get  15  percent  of  the  member's  annuity  at 
age  65. 

b.  Under  early  retirement  before  age  65,  each  child  will  get 
15  percent  of  all  retirement  credits  the  member  earned  before 
reduction  for  early  retirement. 

2.  Educational  Benefits — A  maximum  of  $600  per  year,  or  40 
percent  of  the  annual  annuity  at  age  65,  is  payable  to  the 
college  of  their  choice  for  each  unmarried  dependent  child  for 
the  initial  four  years  of  full-time  study  immediately  beyond  high 
school  as  follows: 

a.  If  the  member  dies  or  becomes  disabled,  or  retires  at  age  65 
or  after,  each  child  will  get  40  percent  of  the  amount  the 
member  would  have  received  at  age  65,  with  a  $600  a  year 
maximum. 

b.  Under  early  retirement  before  age  65,  each  child  will  get 


OF  North  Carolina 


127 


40  percent  of  all  retirement  credits  the  member  earned  before 
reduction  for  early  retirement  was  made,  up  to  a  maximum  of 
$600  a  year. 

3.  Dependent  Parent  Benefit — If  no  wife  survives  you,  a  quali- 
fied, dependent  parent  will  receive  the  widow  benefit. 

Beginning  on  January  1,  1968  all  churches  will  be  billed  for  the 
total  dues  of  the  program.  For  an  adequate  retirement  program  the 
Annuity  Board  and  the  state  conventions  recommend  10  percent  of 
total  salary  of  the  member  be  put  into  the  program.  If  a  church 
pays  its  pastor  less  than  $4,000  a  year,  and  desires  to  do  so,  it  may 
pay  10  percent  dues  on  a  $4,000  salary  basis  to  build  greater 
benefits.  There  is  no  change  in  the  cost.  In  fact,  the  program  elimi- 
nates the  step-up  in  dues  at  age  60  which  was  required  in  the 
former  plan. 

SPECIAL  NOTICE  ... 

The  Annuity  Board  offered  the  benefits  of  the  new  Protection 
Program  more  than  a  year  before  it  was  scheduled  to  go  into  effect 
so  every  minister  could  have  the  new  benefits  immediately.  Any- 
one joining  the  program  after  January  1,  1968  will  have  full  bene- 
fits after  one  year  of  continuous  participation.  The  provisions  on 
delayed  participation  in  the  new  program  state  that  to  be  eligible  for 
full  benefits  one  must  join  the  program: 

a.  During  the  first  year  from  the  date  of  inauguration  (1-1-68) ;  or 

b.  One  year  from  the  date  he  first  became  eligible;  or 

c.  One  year  from  the  date  of  his  25th  birthday,  whichever  is  the 
latest  date.  If  he  fails  to  join  under  one  of  the  above,  the  amount 
of  benefits  for  all  except  retirement  shall  be  reduced  propor- 
tionally by  the  number  of  years  he  delays  in  joining.

Baptist  State  Convention 


Council  Membership 

The  Council  on  Christian  Higher  Education  is  made  up  of  the  fol- 
lowing: presidents  of  the  colleges,  deans  of  the  colleges,  chairmen 
of  boards  of  trustees  of  the  colleges,  and  16  members  of  the  General 
Board's  Committee  on  Christian  Higher  Education.  Ex  officio  mem- 
bers of  the  Council  are  Dr.  W.  Perry  Crouch,  executive  secretary- 
treasurer  of  the  Baptist  State  Convention;  Dr.  Carl  E.  Bates, 
president  of  the  Baptist  State  Convention;  the  Reverend  Gilmer 
Cross,  president  of  the  General  Board;  and  Mrs.  R.  Knolan  Benfield, 
president  of  the  State  Woman's  Missionary  Union. 

The  following  new  members  were  elected  from  the  General  Board 
to  Council  membership  last  year:  John  A.  Bracey,  David  Britt, 
Thomas  Elmore,  and  George  Gibbs. 

New  Presidents 

Within  the  past  two  years  four  of  the  seven  North  Carolina  Bap- 
tist colleges  have  elected  new  presidents.  Two  of  them  have  been 
elected  since  the  Convention  met  last  year.  Both  of  the  new  presi- 
dents are  Baptist  laymen,  ordained  deacons,  and  highly  qualified 
educators.  Dr.  Norman  A.  Wiggins,  well  known  professor  of  Law  at 
Wake  Forest  University,  was  elected  to  succeed  Dr.  Leslie  H.  Camp- 
bell of  Campbell  College.  Dr.  James  Ralph  Scales,  who  succeeds  Dr. 
Harold  W.  Tribble  as  president  of  Wake  Forest  University,  comes  to 
North  Carolina  from  Oklahoma  where  he  was  dean  of  the  School  of 
Arts  and  Sciences  of  Oklahoma  University.  Both  of  these  men  are 
experienced  educators  and  have  been  active  leaders  in  the  life  of 
the  church  and  the  denomination. 

Ministerial  Aid 

Following  an  address  by  Dr.  Norman  A.  Wiggins,  president  of 
Campbell  College,  "The  Baptist  College  and  Ministerial  Education," 
at  the  October  Council  meeting,  the  Council  voted  unanimously 
to  ask  the  Committee  on  Christian  Emphasis  and  Church-School 
Relations  to  make  a  thorough  study  of  the  Cristian  vocations,  in- 
cluding recruitment  and  financial  resources.  Once  the  study  has 
been  organized,  it  is  expected  that  the  Council  will  want  to  ex- 
tend the  study  group  beyond  the  Council  to  include  General  Board 
and  Convention-wide  representation. 

A  recent  letter  from  a  guidance  counselor  of  one  of  our  largest 
city  high  schools  points  up  sharply  the  need  for  scholarships,  loans, 
and  grants  for  Christian  vocational  workers.  One  of  the  main  points 
of  this  unsolicited  letter  is  the  fact  that  all  of  the  major  professions 
except  the  Christian  vocations  have  financial  help  readily  available. 

Baptist  College  Day,  1968 

Since  1957  the  Baptist  State  Convention  of  North  Carolina  has  ob- 
served Christian  Education  Day  in  the  churches  on  Father's  Day. 
However,  beginning  in  1968  this  day  will  be  known  as  Baptist 


OF  North  Carolina 


129 


College  Day.  This  change  was  recommended  by  the  Council  because 
the  term  "Christian  Education  Day"  has  sometimes  been  confused 
with  the  work  of  the  local  church.  However,  the  objectives  remain 
the  same:  to  inform  Baptist  people  about  the  work  of  our  colleges 
and  to  enlist  financial  support  in  the  special  offering.  Although 
the  need  of  the  special  offering  could  scarcely  be  overemphasized, 
it  is  also  to  be  noted  that  churches  are  encouraged  to  observe  Bap- 
tist College  Day  on  Father's  Day  whether  they  take  a  special  of- 
fering or  not. 

The  undesignated  offering  is  divided  among  the  Baptist  colleges 
and  is  placed  in  their  student  aid  fund.  Christian  vocational  workers 
have  the  first  claim  on  these  resources. 

The  Baptist  Education  Study  Task 

The  Baptist  Education  Study  Task,  which  was  a  joint  endeavor  by 
the  Education  Commission,  the  Executive  Committee  of  the  South- 
ern Baptist  Convention,  and  the  various  State  Conventions,  has 
completed  its  task  and  published  its  report.  The  Findings  Committee, 
composed  of  distinguished  Southern  Baptist  pastors,  laymen,  and 
educators  included  the  following  people:

The  Findings  Committee  of  the  Baptist  Education  Study  Task, 
in  its  11 3 -page  report,  reached  some  major  observations  and  signifi- 
cant conclusions.  Among  the  major  observations  are  to  be  found  the 
following : 

1.  That  in  many  instances  Baptist  colleges  have  not  clearly  articu- 
lated their  purpose,  and  should  do  so  at  once. 

2.  That  there  exists  a  wide  communication  gap  between  the  col- 
leges and  the  majority  of  Baptist  people  and  that  this  gap 
ought  to  be  closed. 

3.  That  the  control  of  Baptist  colleges  be  vested  in  the  duly 
elected  Board  of  Trustees,  and  that  State  Conventions  which 
own  these  schools  must  avoid  trying  to  control  them  from  the 
floor  in  the  annual  meeting. 

4.  That  Baptist  schools  face  an  extraordinary  financial  crisis  and 
that  every  effort  must  be  made  to  help  meet  these  needs. 

The  Findings  Committee  also  concluded  that  there  are  some  sig- 
nificant results  of  the  two-year  BEST  Study: 

1.  An  increasing  awareness  of  the  significance  of  Christian  higher 
education  as  an  integral  component  of  the  Baptist  witness. 

2.  A  more  enlightened  understanding  of  the  present  difficulties 
that  confront  our  Baptist  colleges  and  universities. 

3.  A  consciousness  of  need  for  definition  of  the  purposes  of  Chris- 
tian higher  education  in  our  present  day  culture,  and  for  more 
effective  relationship  between  the  colleges  and  the  denomina- 
tion. 

4.  A  more  precise  understanding  of  the  nature  and  extent  of 
financial  support  necessary  to  provide  Christian  higher  edu- 
cation of  acceptable  quality. 

5.  A  deeper  understanding  of  the  vital  relationships  between  the 
colleges  and  the  conventions  that  foster  and  support  them,  and 
a  clearer  understanding  of  the  areas  of  control  and  lines  of 
responsibility. 

6.  A  rededication  on  the  part  of  many  to  the  improvement  and 
strengthening  of  the  Baptist  colleges  and  universities. 

The  Findings  Committee  also  developed  a  suggested  model  state- 
ment of  purpose,  containing  the  six  key  points  which  have  been 
summarized  as  follows: 

Provide  higher  education  within  the  overall  perspective  of  the 
Christian  world  view. 


OF  North  Carolina 


131 


Create  and  nurture  an  atmosphere  conducive  to  the  Christian 
ethic. 

Be  a  center  of  study  and  a  forum  for  discussion  of  the  issues 

and  challenges  facing  the  sponsoring  denomination,  thus  being  on 

the  cutting  edge  of  religious  thought. 

Give  emphasis  to  the  liberal  arts  and  humanities. 

Help  prepare  workers  for  all  the  denominational  enterprises, 

which  is  a  valid  if  not  a  major  purpose  of  a  Christian  college. 

Develop  graduates  who  are  committed  to  and  who  practice  the 

Christian  religion. 

BEST  FoLLow-up  IN  North  Carolina 

The  area  seminar  chairmen  of  the  North  Carolina  BEST  included 
Dr.  John  Bunn  of  Campbell  College;  Dr.  Randall  Lolley,  First  Bap- 
tist Church,  Winston-Salem;  and  the  Reverend  Albert  Ambrose,, 
pastor,  First  Baptist  Church,  Drexel.  These  chairmen  have  been: 
working  with  a  special  Council  committee  to  enable  all  North  Caro- 
lina Baptists  to  have  an  opportunity  to  hear  and  discuss  the  full  re- 
port of  the  Findings  Committee. 

During  March  and  April,  1968,  each  North  Carolina  Baptist  pas- 
tor and  as  many  of  his  congregation  as  can  attend  will  be  invited 
to  a  special  meeting  on  one  of  the  seven  college  campuses.  This 
invitation  will  also  be  extended  to  the  associational  missionaries. 
Three  major  subjects  will  be  discussed  during  the  one-day  session: 
accreditation,  college-denominational  relationships,  and  finance. 
Following  the  presentation  of  materials,  there  will  be  ample  time 
for  questions  and  discussion. 

Special  Study  Groups 

It  is  hoped,  as  a  result  of  these  seminars,  that  at  least  300  churches 
will  undertake  at  some  time  during  1968  to  give  four  Sunday 
evenings  to  the  study  of  Christian  higher  education,  particularly 
as  it  is  related  to  the  seven  North  Carolina  Baptist  colleges. 

Departmental  Faculty  Meetings 

The  interdepartmental  faculty  meetings  of  the  seven  North  Caro- 
lina Baptist  colleges  are  unique  in  Christian  higher  education,  and 
constitute  one  of  the  major  programs  of  the  Council.  This  Council 
program  is  under  the  direction  of  the  Committee  on  Correlation 
and  Instruction.  These  meetings  consist  of  15  disciplines,  but  some 
have  been  combined  because  of  common  interest.  The  meetings 
include  the  following  areas:  English;  Foreign  Languages;  Social 
Sciences;  Physical  Education  and  Health;  Bible,  Religion,  and  Phi- 
losophy (Baptist  student  directors  and  chaplains  meet  with  this 
group);  Mathematics  and  Natural  Sciences;  Education  and  Psy- 
chology; Business  Education;  and  Music  and  Art. 

The  various  disciplines  meet  every  two  years.  During  the  past 
year  the  following  meetings  were  held:   Business  Education  —

Rising  cost  to  the  student,  particularly  in  the  non-tax-supported 
college,  has  become  a  problem  of  major  concern.  Not  only  is  the 
small  denominational  college  feeling  the  pinch,  but  such  major  and 
well  established  institutions  as  Harvard  and  Yale  are  also  being 
affected.  This  was  pointed  out  very  dramatically  in  the  June  23 
issue  of  Time  Magazine. 

The  following  figures  will  illustrate  our  problem  in  North  Caro- 
lina as  we  contrast  instructional  income  of  the  North  Carolina 
Baptist  colleges  with  the  tax-supported  colleges: 

Sources  of  Instructional  Income  for  the  Tax-Supported  College  in 

North  Carolina 

From  State  tax  funds  70  percent 

From  students  21  percent  (Biennium  estimate) 

From  other  sources   9  percent 

Sources  of  Instructional  Income  for  North  Carolina  Baptist  Colleges 
(estimates  based  upon  operation  1966-67) 

From  Cooperative  Program  11  percent 

From  students  85  percent 

From  other  sources    4  percent 

It  is  to  be  noted  that  this  estimate  has  been  worked  out  as  if 
all  North  Carolina  Baptist  colleges  use  all  Convention  income  for 


OF  North  Carolina 


133 


instructional  purposes.  Since  the  majority  of  the  Baptist  colleges 
are  forced  to  divide  the  Convention  income  between  capital  needs 
and  current  operations,  the  percentage  which  the  Convention  actually 
contributes  to  instructional  costs  is  much  less.  The  contrast  between 
what  the  State  pays  and  what  the  Convention  pays  toward  instruc- 
tional costs  illustrates  our  problem.  Baptist  colleges  are  having  to 
pass  more  and  more  instructional  costs  on  to  the  student.  This  is 
not  by  choice,  but  by  necessity.  To  meet  mounting  instructional 
costs,  the  Baptist  colleges  have  been  forced  to  choose  between  in- 
creasing tuition  or  developing  a  second  or  third  rate  academic 
program. 

This  is  one  of  the  greatest  arguments  for  preventing  any  further 
cut  back  in  percentage  of  the  Cooperative  Program  funds  which 
the  colleges  are  now  receiving.  During  the  past  10  years  the  per- 
centage of  funds  going  to  the  colleges  has  dropped  more  than  6 
percent.  By  the  same  token,  this  also  should  be  the  greatest  in- 
centive for  increasing  Cooperative  Program  giving  all  along  the 
line.  It  should  always  be  remembered  that  with  the  exception  of 
student  income  the  Cooperative  Program  is  still  the  largest  single 
source  of  income  for  all  of  our  Baptist  colleges. 

Special  offerings  will  continue  to  play  a  vital  supporting  role  for 
Convention  agencies  and  institutions,  but  it  would  be  shortsighted 
indeed  to  promote  special  offerings  at  the  expense  of  the  Coopera- 
tive Program. 

Therefore,  it  is  essential  that  we  continue  to  support  the  Coopera- 
tive Program  as  the  lifeline  of  all  causes.  A  10  percent  increase 
per  year  would  more  than  double  the  present  income  in  less  than  10 
years. 

Colleges  to  Participate  in  the  Crusade  of  the  Americas 
The  Council  on  Christian  Higher  Education  recommends 

1.  A  standing  committee  on  each  campus  for  the  three-year  period 
of  the  Crusade,  consisting  of  representatives  from  the  admin- 
istration, faculty,  student  body,  and  alumni. 

2.  Faculty  seminars  on  each  campus  to  study  in  depth  the  theologi- 
cal, historical,  and  scriptural  background  of  evangelism  and 
the  Christian  movement. 

3.  Seminars  on  the  campuses  for  youth  groups  and  students  in- 
terested in  the  challenge  of  evangelism  and  missions  in  the 
modern  world. 

4.  Making  available  campus  facilities  for  seminars  and/or  re- 
treats for  all  groups  interested  in  the  Crusade. 

5.  Cooperation  with  Baptist  Student  Union,  Baptist  Training 
Union,  Woman's  Missionary  Union,  and  Brotherhood  in  all 
programs  affecting  youth. 

6.  Continuation  of  annual  religious  programs  such  as  chapel, 
religious  focus  week,  missions  emphasis  week,  vocational  guid- 
ance emphasis,  seminars,  retreats,  and  study  groups.

CAMPBELL  COLLEGE 
William  M.  Womble,  President,  Board  of  Trustees 
NoRMiAN  A.  Wiggins,  President 

The  1967-68  academic  year,  which  opened  on  September  11, 
1967,  marked  the  80th  year  in  the  history  of  Campbell  College.  A 
total  of  2,350  students  enrolled  for  the  fall  session.  This  is  a  slightly 
larger  enrollment  than  our  enrollment  at  the  beginning  of  the  fall 
session  in  1966. 

In  preparation  for  the  year,  the  college  had  ready  for  occupancy 
upon  the  arrival  of  the  new  students  an  air-conditioned  men's  resi- 
dence hall  with  a  capacity  of  205  students.  The  new  residence  hall 
has  an  ultramodern  kitchen  with  a  dining  room  capacity  of  500 
students.  The  new  cafeteria  will  relieve  the  crowded  conditions 
that  have  existed  in  the  college's  main  dining  hall — the  B.  P. 
Marshbanks  Cafeteria. 

The  college  also  opened  for  the  first  time  a  new  air-conditioned 
women's  residence  hall  with  a  capacity  of  100  students. 

The  total  project  cost  for  both  dormitories  was  $1,375,000.00,  fi- 
nanced primarily  by  a  3  percent  self-liquidating  bond  issue. 

During  the  summer  months  the  college  was  engaged  in  a  most 
vigorous  and  ambitious  renovation,  replacement  and  redecoration 
program.  As  a  part  of  the  program  the  Maintenance  Department 
of  the  college  installed  more  than  a  mile  of  a  new  12"  water  main. 

The  most  significant  event  in  this  school  year  is  the  fact  that 
Campbell  College  will  be  presided  over  by  a  new  president,  the 
third  in  its  eighty-year  history.  Dr.  Norman  Adrian  Wiggins  as- 
sumed office  on  June  6,  1967.  Due  to  the  excellent  planning  of 
the  Board  of  Trustees  and  Dr.  Leslie  H.  Campbell,  the  transition 
was  orderly  and  smooth.  Dr.  Leslie  H.  Campbell,  son  of  the  founder 
who  was  president  for  thirty-five  years,  retired  on  June  5,  1967. 
Many  special  ceremonies  were  held  during  the  month  of  May  honor- 
ing the  retiring  president  by  staff,  friends:  the  Little  River  Baptist 
Association,  Alumni,  Harnett  County  Board  of  Commissioners,  the 
members  of  the  Board  of  Trustees,  and  many  other  groups.  Friends 
financed  a  trip  to  Europe  for  President  and  Mrs.  Campbell,  follow- 
ing his  retirement,  and  the  Alumni  purchased  a  new  car  for  him. 
He  was  actively  connected  with  the  college  for  fifty-two  years  as  a 
teacher,  dean,  and  president.  All  members  of  the  college  family  and 
Baptists  throughout  the  State  of  North  Carolina  continue  to  be 
grateful  for  his  inspiring  leadership. 

Of  great  significance  to  the  College  was  the  receiving  on  Decem- 
ber 12,  1966,  the  coveted  title,  "Fully  Accredited"  as  a  senior  in- 
stitution by  the  Southern  Association  of  Colleges  and  Secondary 
Schools.  In  meeting  accreditation  standards  of  this  regional  accredit- 
ing group,  Campbell  College  passed  a  major  milestone  in  its  history. 
At  the  beginning  of  the  present  year,  Campbell  College  averaged 
in  the  sixty  percentile  of  all  Southern  Association  member  colleges 
on  an  undergraduate  level.  Campbell  in  terms  of  the  number  en- 
rolled is  now  the  largest  private  senior  college  in  North  Carolina. 


OF  North  Carolina

The  financial  needs  of  this  greatly  upgraded  senior  college  con- 
stitute its  major  problem,  and  particularly  the  retirement  of  its 
short-term  indebtedness. 

Under  the  leadership  of  Dr.  Wiggins  Campbell  College  is  hope- 
fully planning  for  a  great  future.  Its  long-range  deliberate  planning 
is  of  vital  concern,  not  only  to  the  trustees  and  administration,  but 
to  North  Carolina  Baptists  to  whom  Campbell  College  belongs.  The 
College  will  in  the  future  tackle  its  many  frustrating  decisions 
and  peculiar  problems  with  the  greatest  of  confidence  and  faith 
in  its  divinely-controlled  destiny.  It  will  strive  ever  to  reach  the 
stars  through  difficulties  and  to  continue  to  bring  honor  and  recog- 
nition to  this  great  old  institution  with  its  long  rich  history  of 
services  in  the  cause  of  Christian  higher  education.

CHOWAN  COLLEGE 
Don  G.  Matthews,  Jr.,  Chairman,  Board  of  Trustees 
Bruce  E.  Whitaker,  President 

Chowan  College  marked  the  beginning  of  her  120th  academic 
year  with  an  enrollment  of  1,302  students.  This  total  includes 
1,285  full-time  students  and  17  special  or  part-time  students.  Sopho- 
mores and  other  returning  students  total  461;  freshmen  and  transfer 
students,  808.  There  are  13  students  who  are  now  completing  the 
last  phase  of  the  3  3 -month  nursing  program  at  Duke  University 
Hospital.  Three  young  ladies  are  Medical  Secretarial  Interns. 

The  College's  Second  Annual  Planning  Conference,  held  on  Sep- 
tember 19,  involved  some  300  friends  of  the  College  in  the  con- 
tinued projection  of  development  needs  and  goals.  The  library-fine 
arts  center — the  first  of  the  buildings  projected  in  the  current  de- 
velopment campaign — is  scheduled  for  completion  in  March,  1968, 
at  a  cost  of  approximately  $850,000.  When  completed,  the  library 
section  of  this  structure  will  enable  the  College  to  house  a  collection 
of  up  to  100,000  volumes  and  provide  a  reading-study  area  to  ac-

nine  practice  rooms,  four  faculty  offices,  three  studios,  a  large  class- 
room, band  and  choral  practice  rooms,  and  a  room  to  house  the 
music  library. 

The  College  has  just  completed  an  extensive  self -study  program, 
involving  students,  faculty,  administration,  and  trustees.  This  kind 
of  self-study — required  periodically  by  the  Southern  Association  of 
Colleges  and  Schools — is  designed  to  enable  an  institution  to  con- 
tinue improving  curricular  and  co-curricular  offerings  on  the  basis

is  with  three  area  banks  (The  Farmers  Bank  of  Murf reesboro ; 
Planters  National  Bank  and  Trust  Company;  and  Wachovia  Bank 
and  Trust  Company),  covering  a  five-year  period.  In  addition,  we 
have  a  commitment  from  the  Office  of  Education  (HUD)  for  $600,- 
000.00,  carrying  interest  charges  of  3  percent  and  covering  a  30- 
year  period,  for  purposes  of  constructing  a  new  library-fine  arts 
facility  which  will  cost  approximately  $850,000.00  equipped.  The 
Board  of  Trustees  and  the  Board  of  Advisors  are  continually  work- 
ing in  an  effort  to  meet  the  financial  needs  and  opportunities  of  a 
growing  and  serving  institution  of  Christian  higher  education,  and 
there  has  been  and  continues  to  be  evidence  of  measurable  success. 

The  Chowan  College  Family  appreciates  strong  support  from 
North  Carolina  Baptists.  At  the  same  time,  attention  is  called  to 
the  escalation  of  costs  on  every  hand  and  of  the  necessity  con- 
tinually to  place  a  larger  proportion  of  the  burden  of  these  costs 
upon  the  student.  Support  received  through  the  Baptist  State  Con- 
vention and  directly  from  Baptist  churches  in  the  area  has  helped 
the  college  immeasurably  in  its  mission  and  service  to  our  young 
people.

Baptist  State  Convention 


GARDNER-WEBB  COLLEGE 
R.  Patrick  Spangler,  Chairman,  Board  of  Trustees 
E.  Eugene  Poston,  President 

The  61st  year  at  Gardner-Webb  College  opened  on  August  22, 
1967,  with  the  arrival  of  the  largest  freshman  class  in  the  history  of 
the  school.  A  total  enrollment  of  1,297  sets  a  new  record.  The 
faculty,  the  administration,  and  the  staff  total  105.  There  are  39 
additional  employees  that  make  up  the  maintenance  and  cafeteria 
forces. 

God  has  truly  blessed  Gardner-Webb  College  during  the  past 
year.  The  greatest  blessings  have  been  in  the  realm  of  the  spiritual, 
intellectual,  and  social  areas.  It  would  be  impossible  to  list  all  of 
these. 

Three  new  buildings  will  be  dedicated  during  the  fall  of  1967. 
These  are:  Mauney  Hall,  named  in  honor  of  the  W.  K.  and  D.  C. 
Mauney  families  of  Kings  Mountain;  Nanney  Hall,  named  in  honor 
of  Mr.  and  Mrs.  C.  P.  Nanney  of  Gastonia;  and  Myers  Hall,  named 
in  honor  of  Mr.  A.  G.  Myers,  Sr.  of  Gastonia.  These  dormitories 
have  enabled  the  college  to  serve  over  200  additional  boarding  stu- 
dents. 

Another  forward  step  was  made  when  the  Boiling  Springs  Baptist 
Church  decided  to  sell  its  property  to  the  college.  The  new  educa- 
tional building,  formerly  owned  by  the  church,  has  been  converted 
to  a  classroom  building  and  named  the  David  Lindsay  Building  in 
honor  of  Mr.  David  Lindsay  of  Rutherfordton.  This  move  has  en- 
hanced the  academic  program. 

Two  very  ambitious  programs  were  launched  by  the  Trustees  to 
pave  the  way  to  the  four-year  status  of  Gardner-Webb.  The  first  is 
a  doctoral  leave  program — a  maximum  of  five  professors  will  be 
given  leaves  of  absence  to  complete  work  for  the  Doctor's  Degree. 
Financial  support  will  be  given  to  these  professors  with  the  agree- 
ment that  they  return  to  Gardner-Webb  for  at  least  five  years. 
Three  professors  have  already  left  for  graduate  study  and  others 
have  applied  for  a  leave  during  1968.  This  program  will  assure 
that  the  college  will  have  30  percent  of  the  faculty  with  doctor's 
degrees,  a  requirement  for  four-year  colleges.  The  second  program 
is  the  upgrading  of  the  library.  The  library  budget  has  been 
tripled  and  a  large  challenge  gift  is  being  met.  Mr.  George  Lewis, 
director  of  Libraries  at  Mississippi  State  University,  has  been  em- 
ployed as  consultant  to  help  the  library  meet  the  standards  of  the 
four  year  program. 

The  trustees,  the  advisors,  the  administration,  the  faculty,  and 
the  staff  are  working  diligently  to  get  ready  for  the  four-year 
college  status.  The  fact  that  Gardner-Webb  College  is  surrounded 
by  community  colleges  makes  the  need  of  a  four  year  program  im- 
perative. 

Gardner-Webb  College  continues  as  a  liberal  arts  college.  There 
will  be  a  limited  number  of  majors  offered  as  a  senior  college.

cessing  and  Computer  Service,  and  Secretarial  Science  will  be  con- 
tinued. These  last  three  programs  will  continue  to  have  a  broad 
liberal  arts  foundation. 

The  wives  of  the  trustees,  the  advisors,  the  administration,  and 
the  faculty  are  developing  a  program  of  campus  beautification.  The 
campus  layout  of  Gardner-Webb  College  offers  an  excellent  oppor- 
tunity to  build  a  place  of  true  beauty. 

The  purpose  of  Gardner- Webb  College  is  "to  develop  quality 
Christian  students  who  will  think  for  themselves  and  who  will 
dedicate  themselves  to  the  Christian  way  of  life  in  the  vocation 
of  their  own  choice."  The  entire  Gardner- Webb  family  is  proud  to 
be  a  part  of  the  Baptist  State  Convention  of  North  Carolina.  We 
believe  that  the  Baptist  distinctive  will  do  much  to  meet  the  needs 
of  the  changing  world. 

During  the  past  year  the  Endowment  Funds  increased  $348,531 
through  bequests  and  savings.  The  plant  assets  increased  $1,023,000. 
At  the  present  time  the  Gardner-Webb  College  Endowment  Fund 
is  valued  at  approximately  $1,849,878,  including  an  irrevocable 
trust.  The  physical  plant  is  valued  at  $4,997,433.  As  of  July  31, 
1967,  Gardner-Webb  College  owed  a  debt  of  $475,000  to  the  First 
Union  National  Bank  of  Charlotte,  North  Carolina.  This  is  being 
amortized  at  the  rate  of  $5,000  per  month,  plus  interest.  Pledges 
are  in  hand  to  complete  the  payment  of  this  debt. 

MARS  HILL  COLLEGE 

Walter  R.  Chambers,  Chairman,  Board  of  Trustees 
Fred  B.  Bentley,  President 

Mars  Hill  College  has  just  completed  its  first  year  under  the 
new  administration.  It  was  a  year  filled  with  innovation  and 
change  all  centered  on  the  college's  ten-year  projection  entitled 
"Emphasis  on  Excellence." 

It  was  during  this  past  year  that  the  college  took  another  step 
forward  toward  receiving  full  four-year  accreditation  by  the  South- 
ern Association  of  Colleges  and  Schools.  We  are  hopeful  of  gaining 
full  accreditation  in  December,  1967. 

Utilizing  a  new  data  processing  system  and  a  new  college  calen- 
dar, the  institution  opened  its  doors  on  August  26  with  a  faculty 
workshop  which  was  followed  by  the  students'  orientation  program 
and  registration.  To  date  we  have  1,324  students  enrolled  for  the 
fall  semester.  Within  this  total  number  there  are  716  men  and 
608  women.  These  students  represent  75  counties  in  North  Caro- 
lina, 22  other  states,  7  foreign  countries.  Baptists  again  dominate 
our  student  body,  comprising  approximately  73.6  percent  of  the 
enrollment. 

Concurrent  with  the  opening  of  the  fall  semester.  Mars  Hill 
College  occupied  its  new  physical  education  building.  This  new 
facility  has  gone  beyond  our  highest  expectations,  both  in  terms 
of  beauty  and  function.  The  swimming  pool,  gymnasium,  athletic 
fields,  and  other  facilities  have  added  a  brilliant  new  element  to  our 


140 


Baptist  State  Convention 


campus  life.  The  formal  opening  of  this  facility  was  October  7. 

The  only  indebtedness  of  the  college  is  a  balance  of  $500,000 
on  the  1%  million  dollar  physical  education  complex.  Of  this  in- 
debtedness the  trustees  of  the  college  have  pledged  $350,000.  This 
most  significant  effort  on  the  part  of  the  trustees  will  allow  the 
college  to  center  its  monies  on  the  development  of  the  educational 
program. 

For  the  second  consecutive  year  Mars  Hill  College  has  received 
a  commendation  from  the  American  Association  of  University  Pro- 
fessors. This  commendation  placed  the  college  in  the  top  five  percent 
of  all  institutions  in  the  nation  figuring  on  a  weighted  scale  im- 
provement in  the  area  of  faculty  compensation.  The  college  has 
pledged  itself  to  the  continued  development  of  its  faculty  and  edu- 
cational program. 

Architects,  working  with  the  college  officials  and  trustees,  con- 
tinue to  make  progress  on  plans  for  the  Blackwell  Administration- 
Classroom  Building.  The  structure  which  is  to  get  underway  around 
December,  1968,  will  provide  new  classrooms,  faculty  offices,  semi- 
nar rooms,  a  language  laboratory,  data  processing  center,  and  other 
academic  facilities,  as  well  as  all  of  the  administrative  units  on  the 
campus.  Upon  the  completion  of  the  Blackwell  Building,  Mars  Hill 
should  enjoy  one  of  the  finest  campuses  in  the  South. 

It  was  with  deep  sorrow  and  regret  that  the  college  suffered 
the  loss  of  one  of  its  most  outstanding  faculty  members  through 
death  on  November  17,  1966.  Mr.  J.  Elwood  Roberts  served  the 
college  for  twenty-three  years  and  was  one  of  the  most  influential 
faculty  members  on  all  student  lives. 

As  a  member  of  the  Piedmont  University  Center,  Incorporated, 
the  college  was  able  to  attract  many  outstanding  scholars  to  the 
campus  for  a  lecture  series.  This,  in  turn,  was  buttressed  by  our 
own  efforts  through  our  symposium  series  in  which  we  brought 
outstanding  national  figures  to  the  campus  to  speak  on  the 
theme,  "Crisis  in  World  Politics."  For  the  summer  of  1967  several 
of  our  faculty  members  received  special  grants.  They  are:  Wayne 
Pressley,  H.  Page  Lee,  and  Richard  Hoffman  —  Piedmont  Uni- 
versity Center  Summer  Study  Grants;  Dr.  Harley  Jolley  and  Dr. 
L.  M.  Outten  —  Piedmont  University  Center  Research  Grants;  Mrs. 
Cornelia  Ann  Serota,  Arthur  Wood,  Wilbur  McBride,  and  Mrs.  Betty 
Jolley — National  Science  Foundation  Grants. 

Above  all  else.  Mars  Hill  is  striving  to  perpetuate  its  Christian 
integrity,  its  academic  program,  and  its  friendliness.  We  feel  that 
none  of  these  components  can  stand  alone  since  the  institution  has 
been  founded  on  all  three.  Mars  Hill  College  desires  the  confi- 
dence, patronage,  and  the  financial  support  of  all  its  constituency.

MEREDITH  COLLEGE 
L.  M.  Massey,  Chairman,  Board  of  Trustees 
E.  Bruce  Heilman,  President 

The  first  year  of  President  E.  Bruce  Heilman's  administration 
was  one  of  significant  progress  for  Meredith  College. 

The  study  of  a  new  program  of  inter-institutional  cooperation 
between  Meredith  and  North  Carolina  State  University  was  made 
possible  by  a  $7,500  grant  from  the  Mary  Reynolds  Babcock  Foun- 
dation. Results  of  the  study  provide  for  the  enrollment  of  Meredith 
students  in  certain  classes  at  State  and  for  State  students  in  certain 
courses  at  Meredith. 

In  April,  the  inauguration  of  President  Heilman  took  place  in 
Meredith's  beautiful  Elva  Bryan  Mclver  Amphitheater.  Dr.  Brooks 
Hays,  one-time  special  assistant  to  the  President  of  the  United 
States,  and  former  president  of  the  Southern  Baptist  Conven- 
tion, delivered  the  inaugural  address.  That  occasion  brought  to  the 
campus  representatives  from  107  colleges  and  universities  and  from 
26  learned  societies.  Former  Meredith  president.  Dr.  Carlyle  Camp- 
bell, presented  the  Presidential  Medallion  to  his  successor. 

Inauguration  ceremonies  included  breaking  ground  for  the  new 
million-dollar  Carlyle  Campbell  Library  which  is  expected  to  be 
ready  for  occupancy  in  the  fall  of  1968.  Besides  the  library,  other 
construction  scheduled  for  the  near  future  will  include  a  physical 
education  building  and  an  additional  dormitory.  A  challenge  gift 
of  $20,000  toward  a  new  organ  for  Jones  Auditorium  was  donated 
by  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Robert  E.  Pomeranz  of  Sanford.  Mrs.  Pomeranz  is 
a  Meredith  alumna. 

A  program  of  support,  unique  for  Meredith,  was  begun  with  the 
formation  of  a  Board  of  Associates  designed  to  work  with  and  ad- 
vise the  administration  and  trustees  primarily  in  areas  of  monetary 
sustenance.  This  board,  now  with  47  members,  is  composed  of  out- 
standing men  and  women  from  over  the  state  and  outside  North 
Carolina.  Thus  the  college  is  continuing  a  development  program 
whose  goal  is  the  provision  of  facilities  adequate  for  1,200  students. 

Enrollment  for  the  1966-67  fall  term  was  1,019  —  852  of  whom 
were  degree  candidates.  They  came  from  five  countries  and  18 
states  plus  81  North  Carolina  counties.  About  51  percent  are  Baptist. 
Of  the  freshman  class,  90  percent  had  come  from  the  top  quarter 
of  their  high  school  senior  classes,  as  far  as  academic  ratings  are 
concerned.  Fall  semester  enrollment  for  the  current  year  numbers 
849  degree  candidates. 

The  Bachelor  of  Arts  degree  was  awarded  to  177  young  women  in 
1967  commencement  exercises,  and  the  Bachelor  of  Music  degree, 
requiring  a  fifth  year  of  study,  to  two  graduates. 

The  1967  School  of  Christian  Studies  was  held  on  the  campus 
June  19-21.  Speakers  were  Dr.  Harmon  R.  Holcomb  of  Colgate 
Rochester  Divinity  School;  Dr.  Leander  E.  Keck  of  Vanderbilt 
University;  and  Rev.  John  Stone,  pastor  of  the  First  Baptist  Church 
in  Southern  Pines.

Meredith's  1966-67  financial  audit  as  of  June  30,  1967  lists  the 
assets  of  the  college  at  $7,358,013.23.  The  same  audit  shows  Mere- 
dith indebtedness  to  be  $564,000,  which  amount  represents  a  loan 
from  the  Housing  and  Home  Finance  Agency  on  Poteat  Dormitory 
and  the  college  infirmary,  covering  a  40-year  period  and  carrying 
interest  charges  of  3V4  percent. 

WAKE  FOREST  UNIVERSITY 
G.  Maurice  Hill,  President,  Board  of  Trustees 
James  Ralph  Scales,  President 

Wake  Forest  University  began  the  1967  school  year  under  the 
leadership  of  a  new  president.  Dr.  James  Ralph  Scales. 

Dr.  Scales,  former  dean  of  the  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences  at 
Oklahoma  State  University,  became  Wake  Forest's  11th  president 
July  1.  His  election  and  the  name  change  for  Wake  Forest  were 
announced  at  the  April  meeting  of  the  Board  of  Trustees.  Dr. 
Scales,  a  prominent  Baptist  layman,  was  the  unanimous  choice  of  a 
special  trustee  committee  headed  by  Lex  Marsh  of  Charlotte.  Before 
going  to  Oklahoma  State  University  in  1965,  Dr.  Scales  was  vice 
president,  executive  vice  president  and  president  of  Oklahoma  Bap- 
tist University. 

Wake  Forest  assumed  university  status  on  June  12,  thus  enabling 
Dr.  Harold  W.  Tribble  to  retire  as  president  of  a  university.  Uni- 
versity status  had  long  been  a  dream  of  President  Emeritus  Tribble, 
who  was  president  of  Wake  Forest  College  for  17  years.  At  their 
June  meeting,  the  Board  of  Trustees  voted  that  the  building  which 
has  been  known  as  the  Humanities  Building  be  named  Harold  W. 
Tribble  Hall  in  honor  of  the  retiring  president. 

Three  departments  in  the  School  of  Arts  and  Sciences  began 
master's  degree  work  during  the  summer  and  fall.  They  are  the 
departments  of  religion,  education  and  physical  education.  In  the 
School  of  Arts  and  Sciences,  11  departments  are  now  offering 
master's  work.  Ten  departments  at  Bowman  Gray  School  of  Medi- 
cine offer  master's  degrees,  and  five  of  these  ten  offer  Ph.D.  degrees. 

A  $3.5  million  football  stadium,  located  just  off  the  campus,  is 
under  construction  and  will  be  completed  by  the  fall  of  1968. 

Enrollment  this  school  year  is  the  largest  in  history.  It  is  3,162 
compared  with  3,021  last  year  and  2,996  in  1965-66.  Broken  down 
the  enrollment  is:  2,405  in  the  School  of  Arts  and  Sciences,  271 
in  the  School  of  Medicine,  196  in  the  School  of  Law,  123  in  the 
School  of  Business  Administration,  and  167  in  the  Division  of 
Graduate  Studies. 

Students  at  Wake  Forest  come  from  40  states  and  16  foreign 
countries. 

A  significant  feature  of  the  1967-68  fiscal  year  is  a  record  $15,- 
082,518  budget  for  the  University.  This  represents  an  increase  of 
$1,495,045  over  the  previous  year.  A  portion  of  the  increase  is 
reflected  in  faculty  salaries.

WINGATE  COLLEGE 
Thomas  H.  Leath,  President  of  the  Board  of  Trustees 
BuDD  E.  Smith,  President 

For  the  year  1966-67  the  enrollment  of  Wingate  College  was 
1,561.  These  students  come  from  seventeen  different  states  and 
four  foreign  countries.  Approximately  fifty  per  cent  of  the  stu- 
dents belong  to  Baptist  churches,  and  the  others  are  divided  be- 
tween more  than  thirty  religious  denominations.  There  are  ninety 
faculty  members,  and  these  represent  study  in  more  than  120 
accredited  graduate  schools  in  America  and  foreign  countries. 

The  budget  for  1967-68  is  $3,065,576.  The  total  evaluation  of  the 
campus  at  the  present  time  is  slightly  more  than  $7,000,000.  The 
average  compensation  for  teachers  (nine  months)  is  $7,680.  Fringe 
benefits  include  hospitalization,  insurance,  retirement,  Social  Se- 
curity, tuition  payments  for  graduate  study,  fellowships,  moving 
expenses,  free  tuition  for  children,  and  all  of  this  amounts  to  ap- 
proximately sixteen  or  eighteen  per  cent. 

Wingate  College  has  a  very  fine  library  of  36,000  volumes,  and 
it  is  considered  truly  outstanding  among  junior  colleges  of  the  coun- 
try, because  concentration  has  been  given  to  a  collection  that  will  be 
used  for  the  first  two  years  of  college  education.  The  library  is 
truly  the  center  of  our  program,  and  for  the  year  1967-68  the 
library  budget  is  $70,000.  More  than  3,000  volumes  are  added  each 
year.  At  the  present  time  the  entire  system  is  being  changed  from 
the  Dewey  Decimal  System  to  the  Library  of  Congress  System.  Three 
full-time  professional  librarians  are  employed  along  with  a  library 
clerk  and  twenty  students  who  serve  as  assistants. 

Under  construction  now,  and  nearing  completion,  is  a  fine  arts 
complex  on  the  southeast  corner  of  the  academic  campus  which 
will  provide  facilities  for  music,  art,  foreign  languages,  and  with  a 
small  auditorium  for  student  recitals,  debates,  and  as  a  center  for 
closed  circuit  television  that  will  be  available  to  all  classrooms  on 
the  campus.  Surrounding  the  buildings  will  be  an  enclosed  garden 
for  sculpture  and  an  outdoor  theatre  that  will  seat  500,  with  a 
memorial  fountain  marking  the  original  spring  that  supplied  water

for  the  school  when  it  was  established  in  1895  by  the  Union  Baptist 
Association. 

Under  construction  and  nearing  completion  is  a  dormitory  for 
200  men.  This  facility  is  scheduled  for  completion  for  the  beginning 
of  the  second  semester  in  1968.  The  building  is  air-conditioned  and 
equipped  with  the  very  best  for  housing  on  college  campuses.

The  trustee  program  enabling  pastors  and  their  wives  to  take  any 
courses  offered  at  Wingate  is  still  rendering  service  to  the  denomi- 
nation. Many  people  are  benefiting  from  this  program.  The  North 
Dakota  mission  project  for  freshmen  students  is  still  very  active, 
and  these  students  are  returning  to  the  campus  as  sophomores  and 
sharing  with  their  fellow  students  the  great  opportunities  in  the 
Home  Mission  work  of  the  Baptist  denomination.  The  new  trustee 
scholarship  program  has  completed  two  years,  and  these  students 
are  adding  greatly  to  the  total  program  of  Wingate  College.  At 
the  present  time  there  are  37  young  people  studying  at  Wingate 
under  this  program.  The  Trustees  and  Advisory  Council  are  con- 
tinually working  with  the  Patrons'  organization,  and  during 
the  last  year  these  organizations  have  raised  more  than  one-half 
million  dollars  to  assist  in  operation  and  capital  expansion.  A  very 
important  part  of  the  operating  cost  of  the  school  is  from  the 
North  Carolina  Foundation  of  Church-Related  Colleges.  Wingate 
puts  all  of  this  income  into  salaries. 

Wingate  Trustees  are  still  planning  to  maintain  an  enrollment  of 
not  more  than  1,600  students  and  will  strive  diligently  to  be  an 
outstanding  private,  two-year  college,  serving  young  people  for  two 
years  and  enabling  them  to  go  wherever  they  choose  for  senior 
college  work.  In  May  1967,  530  young  people  were  graduated. 
Many  of  these  were  graduating  with  one-  and  two-year  secretarial 
programs  and  data  processing.  They  went  immediately  to  employ- 
ment. Of  the  others,  479  were  admitted  to  the  senior  college  of 
their  first  choice  without  any  loss  of  credits.  This  is  a  very  fine 
record,  and  Wingate  strives  diligently  to  maintain  an  outstanding 
academic  program. 

At  the  present  time  there  are  187  employees  of  the  college,  and 
each  of  these  is  keenly  aware  of  the  relationship  between  the  Con- 
vention and  the  college.  All  pledge  cooperation  and  promotion  of 
the  Cooperative  Program.  Truly,  the  Cooperative  Program  is  the 
lifeblood  of  the  Wingate  College  educational  program.  We  are 
deeply  grateful  to  each  and  every  Baptist  in  North  Carolina  for 
the  encouragement  and  for  an  investment  in  our  program  of  Chris- 
tian Higher  Education.  Our  philosophy  is,  "An  investment  in  a 
young  person  is  an  investment  in  eternity."

Raymond  H.  Stone,  Chairman,  Board  of  Trustees 
W.  R.  Wagoner,  President 

Significant  progress  has  been  realized  during  the  past  year  in 
the  Agency's  Long  Range  Plan  for  expansion  of  services  and  up- 
grading of  facilities : 

1.  A  modest  home  on  the  Wallburg  farm,  midway  between  Thom- 
asville  and  Winston-Salem,  has  been  renovated  to  serve  as  a  resi- 
dence for  a  small  group  of  boys  needing  special  assistance.  This 
venture  marks  the  beginning  of  a  program  of  rehabilitation. 

2.  A  family  type  cottage  on  the  Mills  Home  Campus,  made  possible 
by  Attorney  and  Mrs.  William  M.  York  of  Greensboro  was  dedicated 
on  June  25,  1967. 

3.  The  Bright-Brown  Cottage  at  Mills  Home,  also  of  family  design, 
will  be  completed  and  occupied  before  the  end  of  the  year. 

4.  The  J.  A.  and  Julia  T.  Bryant  and  Alex  and  Lanie  Williams 
family  cottages  at  Kennedy  Home  are  under  construction. 

5.  The  dairy  herd  has  been  moved  from  Mills  Home  to  Kennedy 
Home  to  a  completely  new  and  automated  dairy  facility. 

6.  A  regional  case  work  center  is  being  opened  in  Raleigh,  more 
adequately  to  serve  the  needs  of  people  of  this  area  of  the  state. 
Centers  staffed  by  trained  social  workers  are  located  in  six  promi- 
nent areas  of  the  state  and  add  to  the  ability  of  the  Homes  to  min- 
ister to  the  needs  of  families. 

The  Child  Development  Center  on  the  Mills  Home  Campus  is  now 
in  its  third  year  of  operation.  It  was  established  to  serve  the  local 
community  as  a  means  of  strengthening  family  life.  It  also  provides  a 
demonstration  and  informational  program  which  can  offer  assistance 
to  churches  in  beginning  any  phase  of  weekday  care  and  education 
for  preschool  children.  During  the  1967-68  school  year  the  center  is 
serving  70  children,  with  related  services  to  their  families,  in  two 
kindergarten  groups  and  two  nursery  school  groups,  with  40  children 
in  full  day  care.  The  staff  is  providing  consultation  services  upon 
request  to  churches  interested  in  the  program. 

A  picturesque  92  acre  tract  of  land  near  Waynesville  in  Haywood 
County  is  currently  under  option  by  the  Children's  Homes  as  a 
prospective  location  for  a  Western  Home  for  children.  Members  of 
the  Board  of  Trustees,  the  Administrative  Staff,  the  Homes  Archi- 
tectural and  Engineering  consultants  have  this  property  under  care- 
ful evaluation  to  determine  its  suitability  for  a  Children's  Home. 
Such  a  facility  is  needed  better  to  serve  the  people  of  Western  North 
Carolina.  Opportunities  for  family  rehabilitation  are  greatly  multi- 
plied when  children  can  be  placed  reasonably  close  to  whatever 
family  they  have.  Should  plans  materialize  a  home  to  serve  approxi- 
mately 50  children  will  be  developed. 

While  giving  attention  to  a  program  of  diversified  services  to

meet  the  needs  of  children  and  their  families  in  a  changing  social 
order  group  care,  foster  home  care,  and  family  services  are  being 
strengthened.  Income  through  the  Cooperative  program,  the  Thanks- 
giving offering,  designation  from  churches  and  individuals  constitute 
the  major  portion  of  the  Homes'  income.  It  is  the  continued  purpose 
of  the  Agency  to  extend  a  variety  of  quality  services  to  as  many 
people  as  possible. 

2.  North  Carolina  Baptist  Homes  for  the  Aging 

William  A.  Poole,  Superintendent 

Your  North  Carolina  Baptist  Homes  for  the  Aging  have  been  on 
the  move  during  the  past  year.  In  fact,  we  will  be  ready  to  move 
into  our  new  Home  at  Yanceyville  in  November  and  will  be  able 
to  receive  30  more  dear  old  people  into  the  family  of  our  Homes. 
When  the  Yanceyville  Home,  our  fifth,  is  occupied,  we  will  have  a 
total  of  200  deserving  older  men  and  women  in  our  care  in  all 
of  the  Homes. 

As  you  know,  we  now  have  four  Homes  and  an  Infirmary  in 
operation.  Resthaven  and  the  Hayes  Home  in  Winston-Salem;  the 
Albemarle  Home  at  Albemarle;  the  Hamilton  Home  at  Hamilton. 

In  these  Homes  you  have  an  eternal  investment  and  can  rejoice 
in  the  loving  care  which  you  are  making  possible  for  our  older 
people.  The  majority  are  financially  needy  persons,  and  are  sup- 
plemented through  the  love  gifts  of  North  Carolina  Baptists.  Two 
sources  of  income  from  the  churches  are  increasingly  vital  in  the 
support  of  our  residents  —  the  Special  Day  Offering,  received  on  the 
3rd  Sunday  of  February  each  year,  and  our  share  in  the  Cooperative 
Program. 

The  Special  Day  Offering  for  1967  is  at  an  all-time  high  and  has 
increased  by  10  percent  over  last  year.  This  is  most  commendable, 
but  when  we  face  the  reality  of  costs,  which  have  advanced  by  20 
percent,  and  the  maintenance  of  a  new  Home  and  the  care  of  30 
additional  residents  at  Yanceyville,  we  could  face  a  real  crisis 
during  the  next  year,  unless  the  gifts  from  our  Baptist  people  con- 
tinue to  increase  in  proportion  to  our  needs. 

We  wish  to  thank  all  of  our  Baptist  people  across  the  State  who 
are  enabling  us  to  minister  to  the  aging  in  Christ's  Name,  and  we 
want  all  of  you  to  know  that  each  of  your  5  Homes  exist  for  the 
people  from  all  over  our  great  State.  We  could  not  operate  without 
your  love,  your  prayers,  your  concern,  and  your  financial  support. 

In  the  midst  of  our  joys  have  been  our  sorrows.  Our  oldest 
resident,  Aunt  Fannie  Drumwright,  passed  away  in  June,  just  short 
of  her  106th  birthday.  She  came  to  live  with  us  at  the  age  of  93, 
and  the  13  years  of  her  presence  with  us  have  been  a  shining 
example  of  the  special  significance  of  a  Christian  ministry  to  older 
people.  The  compassionate  nursing  care  alone  which  this  little  lady 
received  is  reason  enough  to  thank  God  for  the  people  called  Baptists, 
whose  vision  and  concern  for  mankind  have  included  the  aging  in 
answering  the  Master's  call  in  the  service  of  the  Lord.

3.  North  Carolina  Baptist  Hospitals,  Inc. 

Carter  M.  Preslar,  Chairman,  Board  of  Trustees 
Reid  T.  Holmes,  Administrator 

Your  trustees  and  staff  of  the  Baptist  Hospital  wish  to  express  to 
our  Convention  and  our  people  in  the  churches  our  grateful  ap- 
preciation for  your  deep  concern  as  expressed  in  your  interest,  your 
prayers  and  your  financial  support. 

It  has  been  an  eventful  year  in  the  life  of  the  hospital.  It  has 
been  a  difficult  year  financially,  because  of  rapidly  rising  costs  in 
hospital  care.  Your  regular  support  through  the  Cooperative  Pro- 
gram is  vital  to  the  work  of  the  hospital,  including  the  Depart- 
ment of  Pastoral  Care.  Our  urgent  plea  for  extra  help  in  support 
of  our  charity  work,  in  the  face  of  a  heavy  deficit,  was  answered 
with  a  wonderful  expression  of  concern  in  a  Mother's  Day  offering 
of  well  over  $300,000,  by  far  the  largest  ever  made.  We  are  pro- 
foundly grateful  for  this  and  for  the  privilege  we  have  of  serving 
in  your  behalf,  and  in  the  name  of  the  Great  Physician,  these  who 
are  sick  and  cannot  pay  their  way. 

In  this  day  of  scientific  investigation  and  advance  new  wonders 
are  taking  place  constantly.  It  is  an  exciting  day  in  the  field  of 
medicine  —  it  is  a  new  day  with  new  developments  almost  daily. 
There  are  new  procedures,  new  drugs,  new  techniques,  new  instru- 
ments, new  facilities  for  saving  lives  and  relieving  suffering  and 
handicaps.  Our  Medical  Center,  composed  of  the  Baptist  Hospital 
and  the  Bowman  Gray  School  of  Medicine  of  Wake  Forest  University, 
is  deeply  involved  and  making  significant  contributions  in  this 
advance  in  medicine.  An  important  foundation  has  been  so  im- 
pressed with  our  institution  that  it  has  chosen  our  School  of  Nursing 
and  is  providing  large  grants  to  make  it  a  center  for  developing 
the  best  possible  curricula  and  methods  for  the  training  of  nurses 
and  to  make  it  a  pilot  program  for  other  schools  in  this  country. 

The  development  program  is  under  way  with  construction  in 
progress  on  the  power  plant,  the  Medical  School  addition  and  the 
new  Paramedical  School  building.  The  power  plant  is  scheduled  for 
completion  by  summer  of  1968,  and  then  the  new  patient  tower  is 
to  be  started.  The  Paramedical  School  building  is  due  to  be  com- 
pleted by  September,  1968,  and  make  possible  the  enlargement  of 
these  nine  schools  to  help  meet  the  acute  needs  in  these  fields.  It 
is  anticipated  that  the  development  program  will  be  completed  by 
1971,  making  it  possible  better  to  train  medical  personnel,  to  par- 
ticipate more  largely  in  medical  research,  and  to  minister  more 
effectively  to  more  people  in  their  time  of  sickness. 

As  we  increase  our  capacity  to  serve,  our  great  concern  is  for  the 
sick  person  who  needs  the  ministry  of  our  Baptist  Hospital  but 
cannot  pay  the  cost  of  this  service.  We  believe  this  is  at  the  heart 
of  our  mission;  we  believe  it  is  what  North  Carolina  Baptists  want 
us  to  do;  and  we  believe  North  Carolina  Baptists  will  provide  the 
means  for  us  to  do  it.  To  that  end  we  express  to  you  our  gratitude 
and  pledge  to  you  our  best  effort  to  serve.

Highlights  of  the  Year 

Once  again  the  Recorder  is  pleased  to  report  a  sizable  gain  in 
circulation,  although  it  is  never  as  large  as  we  would  like  to  see. 
There  was  a  gain  of  3,126  over  last  year.  More  of  our  larger  churches 
are  including  the  Recorder  in  the  budget  and  this  is  most  encourag- 
ing. We  long  for  the  day  when  more  churches  will  include  the  Re- 
corder as  a  natural  part  of  their  literature  expense.  Nothing  can  take 
its  place  in  the  life  and  work  of  North  Carolina  Baptists. 

It  is  not  surprising  that  the  Recorder  shows  a  deficit  for  the  past 
year's  operation.  Printing  and  mailing  costs  continue  to  spiral  while 
income  remains  relatively  stable.  The  Recorder  is  put  in  a  most  un- 
usual position  with  regard  to  more  people  getting  the  paper  under 
the  low-cost  Church  Budget  Plan.  Under  this  plan,  the  cost  to  a 
church  is  only  $2  a  year  while  the  auditor's  cost  for  each  annual 
subscription  is  $2.96.  This  strange  paradox  will  not  keep  us  from 
promoting  the  Church  Budget  Plan  because  it  is  our  conviction  that 
every  Baptist  home  should  receive  the  Recorder.  Somehow,  adequate 
operational  expenses  will  be  found. 

Of  course,  the  Recorder  is  not  a  profit-making  organization  and 
doesn't  expect  to  be.  Certain  economy  moves  will  be  made  in  the 
coming  year  in  an  effort  to  offset  the  increasing  cost  of  printing  and 
mailing  the  Recorder.  A  large  proportion  of  our  budget  is  fixed  by 
contracts — for  rent,  printing,  paper,  postage,  etc.  It  will  be  remem- 


150 


Baptist  State  Convention 


bered  also  that  the  Recorder  has  not  received  an  increased  allocation 
from  the  convention  since  1958.  Since  subscription  rates  were  raised 
in  1961,  it  is  our  hope  that  this  will  not  have  to  take  place  again 
soon.  The  Recorder  is  very  selective  in  its  advertising  and  conse- 
quently there  is  no  practical  way  for  advertising  to  offset  the  con- 
tinued increases  in  printing  and  mailing. 

V.  REPORT  OF  THE  NORTH  CAROLINA  BAPTIST 
FOUNDATION,  INC. 

Gordon  Maddrey,  Executive  Secretary 

The  year  1967  has  been  a  year  of  marked  progress  in  several  areas 
of  our  Baptist  Foundation  work.  It  is  truly  a  joy  to  see  the  interest 
among  our  people  stirred  and  to  know  we  are  beginning  on  the 
road  of  real  progress.  Our  climb  has  been  slow  during  the  past 
few  years  but  with  the  encouragement  of  our  Baptist  people,  we 
now  know  the  services  rendered  by  The  North  Carolina  Baptist 
Foundation,  Inc.  are  appreciated  and  are  being  used.  Our  assets  as 
of  June  30,  1967,  have  exceeded  one  million  dollars. 

One  of  the  highlights  of  this  year  has  been  the  building  of  a  new 
Home  for  the  Aging  in  Yanceyville.  Money  and  property  were  left 
to  the  Foundation  sometime  ago  through  wills  of  a  brother  and 
sister  for  this  purpose.  This  Home  will  be  open  for  occupancy  in 
the  Fall.  We  are  most  proud  to  have  had  a  part  in  the  building  of 
this  particular  Home. 

We  are  often  mentioning  to  our  people  throughout  the  state  that 
everyone  should  have  a  will  —  man  and  woman.  We  feel  if  he  or 
she  counsels  with  his  lawyer  that  whatever  desires  they  may  have 
for  a  particular  cause,  can  be  fulfilled.  This  was  the  case  of  our 
new  Home  for  the  Aging  .  .  .  thinking  and  planning  ahead. 

On  an  average  about  30  percent  of  our  adults  have  a  will.  It  is 
easy  to  see  that  a  great  deal  of  work  needs  to  be  done  to  educate 
the  remaining  70  percent  on  the  desirability  of  having  a  will.  The 
Foundation  believes  that  every  Christian  should  have  a  Christian 
will  in  that  he  recognizes  God's  ownership  of  all  things  and  he 
has  the  blessed  privilege  of  being  faithful  in  his  Christian  steward- 
ship. Whether  one  elects  to  use  the  facilities  of  the  Baptist  Founda- 
tion for  a  continuing  witness  of  their  stewardship  is  not  too  im- 
portant but  that  they  make  a  will  and  publicly  declare  God  the  ' 
owner  of  all  things  and  they  as  his  stewards  is  of  paramount  im-  i 
portance.  Through  prayerful  consideration,  God  will  lead  you  to 
do  that  which  is  best  for  His  Kingdom  through  YOUR  will. 

This  year  we  have  had  a  tremendous  response  from  our  pastors  i 
giving  the  name  of  a  Church  Representative  for  his  particular 
church.  We  are  most  grateful  to  each  Representative  for  accepting 
this  responsibility. 

January  will  be  observed  again  as  "Make  Your  Will  Month."  Bui-  i 
letin  inserts  were  sent  all  pastors  who  requested  them  last  January  i 
to  be  used  any  Sunday  during  that  month.  Our  response  to  this  was  i 


OF  North  Carolina 


151 


over-whelming  with  a  total  of  55,000  being  used  in  the  churches. 

The  Foundation  office  is  open  to  everyone  and  we  invite  you  to 
come  by  or  call  if  we  can  be  of  any  help.  Any  literature  you 
might  desire  for  individual  use  or  for  meetings,  will  be  furnished 
upon  request.  Also  our  two  16mm  sound  films  "Treasures  in  Heaven" 
and  "God's  Will  Through  Yours,"  plus  a  35mm  film  strip  "Genera- 
tions to  Come"  are  available  through  the  Program  Services  office. 
We  hope  you  will  have  an  occasion  to  use  these  films. 

VI.  REPORT  ON  CONVENTION  COMMITTEES 

A.  COMMITTEE  ON  MEMORIALS 

We  pause  in  our  convention  program  proceedings  to  pay  tribute 
to  our  beloved  ministers  of  the  Gospel  who  have  been  called  to 
their  reward  since  our  last  annual  meeting.  It  is  altogether  fitting 
and  proper  that  we  should  do  this.  But  in  a  much  greater  measure 
they  have  brought  honor  to  themselves  far  beyond  our  poor  power 
to  add  or  detract.  Early  in  life  they  heard  the  Master's  call  and 
challenge:  "The  fields  are  white  unto  harvest.  Who  will  come  and 
work  with  Me  in  My  Vineyard?"  Each  one  answered,  "Here  am  I, 
Lord,  use  me." 

During  their  long  years  of  service,  they  walked  hand  in  hand 
with  Christ,  and  were  guided  into  many  fields  of  vital  service. 
Often  they  labored  under  great  difficulties,  but  they  fainted  not. 
Then  at  last  the  Master  called  again  and  said  to  them,  one  by 
one,  "Well  done  thou  faithful  servant.  Thou  hast  been  faithful 
over  the  few  things  that  I  gave  you  here  in  this  world.  Enter  now 
into  the  Joys  of  thy  Lord."  Surely  our  state  is  a  better  community 
than  it  would  have  been  had  they  not  passed  this  way.  Let  us  all 
and  each  rededicate  ourselves  to  the  unfinished  task  that  lies  ahead. 

The  names  of  these  departed  servants  are  as  follows:

B.  REPORT  OF  PUBLIC  AFFAIRS  COMMITTEE 

Though  the  Public  Affairs  Committee  has  addressed  itself  to 
other  matters  in  the  course  of  the  year,  its  annual  report  to  the 
Convention  focuses  again  on  the  issue  of  religious  liberty.  The 
Committee  wishes  to  reaffirm  its  position  in  its  1966  report  which 
opposed  a  proposed  amendment  to  the  provision  of  the  Constitution 
relating  to  church-state  separation.  The  Committee  feels  that  it  is  a 
major  feature  of  its  assignment  to  call  attention  to  any  infringement 
or  compromise  of  religious  liberty,  whether  by  Baptists,  or  any 
other  body  in  the  nation,  or  by  the  government  itself;  that  the 
matter  of  church-state  separation  needs  continual  reassessment 
in  the  light  of  changing  circumstances  and  that  a  rigid  and  au- 
thoritarian posture  with  regard  to  the  issue  is  no  longer  constructive 
in  working  out  a  viable  and  dynamic  relationship  between  church 
and  state  today. 

I.  A  Reaffirmation  of  Confidence  in  the  First  Amendment. 

It  is  our  firm  conviction  that  the  First  Amendment  offers  full  and 
ample  protection  for  our  religious  liberty,  and  that  any  amendments 
thereto  will  only  weaken  its  structure  and  lead  to  false  interpreta- 
tions and  questionable  practices.  We  reaffirm  our  faith  in  the  First 
Amendment  and  the  Bill  of  Rights  to  guarantee  the  great  American 
principle  of  Religious  Freedom  and  Separation  of  Church  and 
State.  In  its  interpretation  of  the  First  Amendment,  the  Supreme 
Court  has  declared  that  government  agencies  should  not  impose, 
regulate,  or  organize  religious  exercise  in  the  schools.  With  this 
decision  we  are  in  full  agreement. 

There  is  little  or  no  foundation  for  alleging  that  the  Supreme 
Court  is  attempting  to  deprive  our  nation  of  its  Christian  heritage. 
The  First  Amendment  guarantees  that  the  government  shall  make 
no  law  prohibiting  the  free  exercise  of  religion.  The  decision  of  the 
Supreme  Court  concerning  the  "establishment  of  religion"  section 
of  the  First  Amendment  indicates  that  it  would  rule  against  any 
governmental  action  that  would  regulate  or  coerce  the  religious 
life  of  the  people.  Below  are  listed  some  of  the  ways  in  which  the 
Bible  may  be  used  and  in  which  the  free  exercise  of  religion  may 
be  practiced  in  public  schools.  We  consider  these  worthy  of  study, 
and  we  believe  that  such  procedures  are  well  within  the  limits  of 
our  Constitution. 

1.  Bible  study  as  a  credit  course.  Just  as  a  competently  prepared

teacher  can  deal  objectively  with  politics  or  economics,  a  competently 
prepared  teacher  can  deal  objectively  with  a  course  of  Bible  study. 

2.  Bible  in  moral-spiritual  value  programs.  The  ideals  appropriate 
and  essential  to  a  democratic  society  are  inseparable  from  the 
Bible.  Scriptures  relative  to  such  ideals  as  integrity,  self-discipline, 
sacredness  of  personality,  honesty,  charity,  and  others  identified 
with  good  citizenship  have  a  legitimate  place  in  the  education  of 
the  whole  man. 

3.  Bible  in  the  teacher's  life.  A  Christian  teacher's  most  significant 
use  of  the  Bible  in  the  classroom  is  that  reflected  in  his  own  life. 

4.  Meditation  Period.  The  meditation  period  could  have  real  value 
with  the  church  and  the  home  giving  guidance  as  to  how  such  a 
period  could  be  used:  silent  prayer,  scripture  memorization,  reading 
of  scripture  portions,  devotional  booklets,  and  the  like  are  sug- 
gestions. 

II.  A  Reassessment  of  Church-State  Separation. 
A.  Church-State  Separation  in  Historical  Perspective. 

Diversity  among  Baptists  is  an  inevitable  corollary  of  the  one 
most  universal  distinctive  among  those  who  bear  the  name:  the 
competency  of  the  soul  in  religion — "that  the  individual  is  respon- 
sible solely  to  God  for  his  eternal  destiny. "i  On  this  solid  foun- 
dation the  unique  witness  of  Baptists  has  been  raised:  the  priest- 
hood of  the  believer,  freedom  to  read  and  interpret  inspired  scripture 
(the  only  document  adequate  with  final  authority  for  faith  and 
practice),  the  democratic  structure  of  congregational  life  composed 
through  believer's  baptism  of  which  Christ  alone  is  Lord,  and 
the  free  association  of  churches  with  churches. 

Emphasis  upon  individual  religious  liberty  is  the  most  con- 
sistent thread  discernable  throughout  the  course  of  Baptist  history. 
It  produces  the  amazing  paradox  that  explains  both  the  unity  of 
faith,  fellowship  and  cooperative  work,  and  the  rich  variety  of 
Baptist  thought  and  interpretation.  Changing  historical  circum- 
stances provide  the  chief  clues  for  understanding  the  proper  context 
out  of  which  the  long  succession  of  Baptist  confessions  of  Faith  is 
derived. 

This  very  diversity  of  interpretation  indicates  the  openness  of 
Baptists  to  new  insights  from  the  Spirit  from  age  to  age  in  the 
ever  changing  conditions  of  history.  This  pluralism  is  seen  no  less 
in  the  Baptist  understanding  of  the  relation  of  the  believer  to  the 
civil  order.  This  relation  has  always  been  stated  in  such  wise  as 
to  protect  the  freedom  of  the  individual  conscience  in  a  particular 
historic  context.  The  fundamental  Baptist  position  is  religious  liberty. 
The  disentanglement  of  the  institutional  structures  of  Church  and 
State  is  one  of  the  most  noble  expressions  of  this  doctrine,  and  is 
itself  a  principle  and  not  a  doctrine  in  the  New  Testament  sense  of 
the  word.

Baptist  State  Convention 


Hence,  in  the  light  of  Medieval  Christendom  with  its  union  of 
Church  and  State,  which  was  spiritually  so  deadening  to  individual 
religious  freedom,  the  earliest  Baptist  confessions  even  forbade  be- 
lievers to  hold  civil  office,  though  magistrates  were  still  to  be 
obeyed,  if  they  ruled  wisely  and  justly. 2 

By  1644  the  London  Confession  declared  it  lawful  for  a  Christian 
to  be  a  magistrate  and  to  take  oaths. ^  This  position  has  been  reiter- 
ated in  all  subsequent  Confessions.  The  basic  principle  of  Church- 
State  separation  was  clearly  stated  in  such  Confessions  long  be- 
fore it  became  possible  in  actual  practice:  ''the  State  has  no 
ecclesiastical  and  the  Church  no  civic  function. "4 

The  State,  therefore,  was  not  "to  meddle  with  religion,  or  matters 
of  conscience,  to  force  or  compel  men  to  this  or  that  form  of  re- 
ligion, or  doctrine;  but  to  leave  Christian  religion  free,  to  every 
man's  conscience"  ...  as  John  Smyth  stated  in  his  Confession  of 
1612  for  the  English  congregation  at  Amsterdam.^ 

In  England  where  a  State  Church  insisted  upon  religious  con- 
formity to  one  established  church,  Thomas  Helwys  made  an  even 
stronger  claim  for  freedom  of  worship,  for  which  he  was  jailed  in 
Newgate  prison. ^  The  Confessions  that  followed  continued  to  expand 
this  principle  and  received  the  clear  support  of  a  John  Bunyan 
and  a  John  Milton.  In  the  American  colonies,  Milton's  classmate  at 
Cambridge,  Roger  Williams,  was  to  found  the  Rhode  Island  Colony 
on  the  principle  of  separation  of  Church  and  State  denying  the 
right  of  a  civil  magistrate  to  interfere  in  matters  of  conscience  and 
religion,  which  culminated  victoriously  in  the  First  Amendment  to 
the  Constitution  and  the  omission  of  any  religious  tests  or  restric- 
tions for  holding  public  office. 

To  safeguard  their  beliefs  in  the  priesthood  of  believers  and  in 
religious  freedom,  Baptists  have  insisted  upon  the  separation  of 
Church  and  State. ^  The  rise  of  this  principle  must  be  seen  over 
against  an  historical  situation  in  which  the  civil  power  was  con- 
trolled by  an  Established  Church  for  its  own  sectarian  gains, 
with  attendant  persecution  of  all  other  free  and  dissenting  religious 
bodies. 

Furthermore,  the  multiplicity  and  confusion  of  denominations 
fructifying  out  of  the  Reformation  in  the  American  colonies  made 
it  utterly  impossible  for  a  single  Established  Church  to  arise  on  the 
American  scene.  Separation  of  Church  and  State,  though  never 
absolute  in  the  sense  of  completely  nullifying  religious  influence  in 
national  affairs,  was  the  principle  best  suited  to  safeguard  the  in- 
dividual religious  conscience  in  the  light  of  the  historical  circum- 
stances of  the  time.

A  necessary  factor  in  the  principle  calls  for  the  rejection  of  public 
tax  funds  for  the  support  of  the  clergy  and  the  propagation  of 
religious  tenets.  Multiple  aid  of  this  kind  "treating  and  supporting 
all  churches  equally,"  suggested  by  South  Carolina  in  1778,  was 
defeated  through  the  powerful  opposition  of  Madison,  Jefferson  and 
Washington.9 

In  the  present  historical  circumstances  Baptist  diversity  again 
shows  itself  in  regard  to  the  relation  of  the  believer  to  the  civil 
power.  Christians  hold  public  office  in  large  numbers;  Judeo- 
Christian  ethics  have  been  translated  both  into  the  structures  and 
programs  of  government's  responsibility  for  the  whole  citizenry; 
church  and  government  enterprises  overlap  in  increasing  ways. 
The  modern  democratic  State  is  not  what  the  State  was  in  Medieval 
Christendom. 

MuUins'  prophetic  insight  aptly  described  the  nature  of  the 
emerging  new  relation  between  Church  and  State  in  our  time, 
when  he  said,  "There  will,  of  course,  remain  a  borderland  where  it 
will  not  always  be  clear  how  to  discriminate  and  apply  the  principle      ?  ' 
correctly.  "10 

Many  Baptists  are  finding  means  of  cooperating  with  the  State 
as  joint-partners  to  serve  the  needs  of  society,  particularly  in  the 
areas  of  education  and  welfare  (once  the  exclusive  domain  of  the 
Church),  in  ways  that  still  safeguard  the  principle  of  individual 
religious  freedom  and  the  freedom  of  the  congregations. 

In  one  set  of  historical  circumstances  the  relation  of  Church  and 
State  called  for  separation  between  the  two.  Another  set  of  histori- 
cal circumstances  strongly  suggests  the  possibility  of  a  relationship 
of  cooperative  effort.  In  both  the  individual  religious  conscience  can 
be  safeguarded.  Both  can  be  called  "historic  Baptist  positions." 

B.  Church-State  Separation  in  Contemporary  Perspective. 

An  examination  of  the  interrelationship  of  Church-State  affairs 
leads  the  Committee  of  Public  Affairs  to  the  conclusion  that  absolute 
dependence  is  not  only  morally  wrong  but  is  unlawful  under  our 
Constitution  while  absolute  separation  is  impossible.  The  most  serious 
problem  is  to  discern  the  nature  and  extent  of  separation  which  is 
necessary  in  order  to  preserve  religious  liberty  and  achieve  in- 
sights helpful  to  the  co-existence  of  both  Church  and  State.  These 
two  institutions  must  exist  and  work  out  their  programs  in  the 
same  localities,  in  the  same  period  of  history  and,  largely,  with  the 
same  people. 

Interrelationships  and  cooperation  have  proven  beneficial.  The 
State  fulfills  its  obligations  in  the  task  of  protecting  persons  in  a 
generally  accepted  and  legitimate  service.  Sanitation  laws,  building 
codes,  safety  and  fire  regulations,  maintaining  peace  and  order  are 
but  a  few  illustrations  in  which  the  State  penetrates  into  the  affairs 
of  the  Church  for  the  protection  of  individuals.  Cooperation  be-

York,  1953.  p.  9.

Baptist  State  Convention 


tween  Church  and  State  has  proven  beneficial  to  both  institutions 
through  the  work  of  foreign  missionaries.  Our  nation  has  won 
friends  and  our  missionaries  converts  through  educational  and  health 
services  and  the  distribution  of  foods  and  supplies  via  a  cooperative 
effort.  Where  lives  have  been  endangered  in  the  discharge  of  service, 
many  missionaries  have  relied  upon  governmental  aid  for  security 
and  in  some  cases  evacuation.  The  chaplaincy  is  another  illustration 
where  Church  and  State  cooperation  has  proved  mutually  bene- 
ficial. This  service  appears  to  be  too  complex  and  far  reaching  for 
discussion  in  this  brief  report. 

In  our  own  land  we  have  often  asked  the  State:  to  assist  in  the 
observance  of  "the  Lord's  day,"  the  acknowledgment  of  Christ's 
birth  with  a  legal  holiday,  the  curtailing  of  theatre  and  sports 
activities  when  in  conflict  with  church  interests,  the  regulation  of 
tavern  operations,  and  to  make  other  exceptions  for  the  religious 
conscience  by  means  of  public  law,  such  laws  to  be  enforced  by 
the  State.  Coins  and  currency  have  been  used  for  reminders  of 
religious  values  and  in  governmental  and  patriotic  ceremonies  God 
and  country  are  closely  associated.  Through  governmental  adminis- 
trative bodies,  our  ministers  have  been  given  draft  exempt  status 
under  Federal  draft  laws  and  our  churches  have  received  many 
financial  advantages  and  other  benefits  such  as  tax  exemptions  and 
reduced  postal  rates. 

Therefore,  the  Public  Affairs  Committee  wishes  to  remind  fellow 
Baptists  that  separation  of  Church  and  State  has  not  and  does  not 
require  the  Church  to  take  a  negative  attitude  toward  organized 
society  and  it  has  not  and  does  not  require  the  State  to  take  a 
negative  attitude  toward  the  Church.  Collective  activities  give  us  a 
long  and  varied  story  of  associations  describing  organizational 
patterns  by  which  man  has  achieved  collective  goals. 

We  do  believe  that  separation  of  Church  and  State  means  that 
the  Church  has  its  own  reasons  for  being  and  that  these  reasons 
are  distinct  from  those  of  the  State.  Separation  also  means  that 
there  are  two  publics.  Though  there  is  some  overlap  in  activity 
and  in  interest,  the  Church  must  of  necessity  be  a  voluntary  group. 
The  Church  must  maintain  its  distinct  methods  and  its  separate 
administration. 

It  follows  that  Church  and  State  must  have  their  own  separate 
sources  of  income,  their  own  appropriate  educational  programs  and 
their  own  structure  of  agencies  and  programs.  There  should  be  no 
element  of  control  imposed  on  one  by  the  other,  either  actual  or 
implied.  In  brief,  the  complexity  of  Church-State  affairs  requires  a 
judicious  balance  between  Church-State  cooperation  and  separation.

C.  THE  CHRISTIAN  LIFE  COMMITTEE 

The  Christian  Life  Committee  is  acutely  aware  of  the  many  per- 
sonal and  social  problems  which  impinge  upon  every  area  of  our 
society. 

It  is  our  responsibility  to  delineate  what  we  consider  the  most 
pressing  social  issues  and  to  recommend  what  resolutions  and  ac- 
tions we  as  Baptists  in  North  Carolina  can  take  with  regard  to 
these  problems.  In  consideration  of  these  issues  we  shall  concern 
ourselves  with  three  broad  divisions:  1st,  The  Church  in  a  Secular 
Society,  2nd,  Human  Relations,  and  3rd,  Political  and  Economic 
Affairs.  This  Committee  recognizes  that  its  responsibility  is  to 
speak  to  our  Baptist  State  Convention  rather  than  to  speak  for  it, 

I.  The  Church  in  a  Secular  Society 

Of  his  disciples  Jesus  said,  "I  pray  not  that  thou  shouldest  take 
them  out  of  the  world,  but  that  thou  shouldest  keep  them  from 
the  evil"  (John  17:15).  Christians  are  to  be  in  the  world  but  not 
of  it.  They  are  in  the  world  as  lights  to  illumine  it,  as  salt  to 
savor  it,  and  as  leaven  to  change  it. 

Every  Christian  is  to  seek  the  will  of  the  Lord  as  in  love  he 
relates  himself  to  others  in  home,  in  church,  in  business;  to  neighbors 
individually  and  in  community;  yes,  even  to  enemies.  Every  Chris- 
tian is  to  be  responsible  for  his  own  attitudes  and  for  his  conduct 
as  a  Christian. 

Every  Christian  is  to  be  a  good  witness  for  Jesus  Christ.  In 
accord  with  our  Lord's  express  will,  saved  persons  are  voluntarily 
to  unite  with  other  saved  persons  in  churches  for  the  proclamation 
of  the  gospel,  for  evangelism,  for  teaching,  for  ministering  to  the  end 
that  people  may  be  won  to  Christ  and  may  be  encouraged  to  ob- 
serve all  things  whatsoever  He  has  commanded.  Each  Christian  has  a 
responsibility  insofar  as  he  has  influence  and  a  vote  to  see  that  his 
church  is  genuinely  Christian. 

Churches  do  well  to  send  messengers  to  unite  with  the  messengers 
from  sister  churches  to  form  associations  and  conventions  such  as 
our  Baptist  State  Convention  of  North  Carolina,  and  the  Southern 
Baptist  Convention  "for  the  promotion  of  Christian  missions  at 
home  and  abroad  and  any  other  objects  such  as  Christian  educa- 
tion, benevolent  enterprises,  and  social  services  which  it  may  deem 
proper  and  advisable  for  the  furtherance  of  the  kingdom  of  God."i 

The  Christian  Life  Commission  of  the  Southern  Baptist  Conven- 
tion, 460  James  Robertson  Parkway,  Nashville,  Tennessee,  Dr.  Foy 
Valentine,  Executive  Secretary-Treasurer,  correlates  many  programs 
for  Christian  morality  development  among  Southern  Baptists.  In  its 
report  to  the  Southern  Baptist  Convention  in  June  1967  the  Com- 
mission reported: 

"The  channeling  of  materials  on  applied  Christianity  through  the 
Commission's  ministry  surpassed  a  total  circulation  of  71,290,000. 


1  Constitution  of  the  Southern  Baptist  Convention,  article  II. 


158 


Baptist  State  Convention 


Most  of  this  circulation  was  realized  through  the  cordial  cooperation 
of  the  state  Baptist  papers  and  the  effective  open  channels  pro- 
vided by  many  different  departments  in  the  Baptist  Sunday  School 
Board,  especially  the  Training  Union  Department.  Other  notably 
cooperative  helpers  in  channeling  this  emphasis  on  applied  Chris- 
tianity in  1966  were  the  Home  Mission  Board,  the  Brotherhood 
Commission,  Woman's  Missionary  Union,  and  The  Baptist  Program. 

"More  new  books,  articles,  and  study  materials  were  published 
than  ever  before  in  any  twelve-month  period  to  help  Southern 
Baptists  with  Christian  morality  development.  Among  the  books 
were  Alcohol — In  and  Out  of  the  Church  by  Wayne  Oates,  The 
Many  Faces  of  Ethyl  by  William  S.  Garmon,  and  The  Gambling 
Menace  written  by  the  Christian  ethics  professors  from  all  the 
Southern  Baptist  seminaries  and  edited  by  Ross  Coggins. 

"An  important  project  involving  preparation  of  carefully  re- 
searched materials  for  a  bibliography  of  Christian  social  ethics  re- 
source materials  for  all  Southern  Baptist  pastors  and  educational 
directors  was  contracted  and  carried  out.  This  research  will  be 
valuable  for  years  to  come  for  all  who  want  to  make  quick  refer- 
ence to  the  materials  available  to  pastors  and  the  churches  on 
such  topics  as  family  life,  race  relations,  daily  work,  citizenship, 
and  specific  moral  issues  like  alcohol,  narcotics,  gambling,  and 
obscenity." 

In  our  Baptist  State  Convention,  The  Biblical  Recorder,  the 
Executive  Secretary,  the  officers  of  the  convention,  the  Executive 
Committee,  and  the  departments  of  the  convention  have  been  told 
to  voice  and  have  capably  interpreted  the  desire  of  North  Carolina 
Baptists  for  social  righteousness. 

Christian  people  can  influence  the  secular  world  by  being  active 
in  community  and  political  life.  The  ballot  is  a  potent  weapon  for 
good.  Our  constituency  is  encouraged  to  vote  as  a  Christian  duty 
for  the  candidates  and  for  the  issues  considered  most  likely  to  give 
us  an  ordered  community  and  a  civic  life  most  nearly  in  accord  with 
Christian  standards  of  righteousness.  Christian  people  are  encour- 
aged to  seek  public  office.  For  conscience  sake  we  are  to  pay  taxes, 
obey  the  laws,  accept  jury  service,  and  all  other  civic  responsibilities. 

Our  Lord's  commands  to  "Make  disciples  of  all  nations"  and  to 
"Go  and  do  thou  likewise"  (referring  to  the  care  given  by  the 
Good  Samaritan  to  the  poor,  wounded  robbed  man  on  the  Jericho 
road)  are  complementary  rather  than  mutually  exclusive.  The 
church  that  scatters  for  social  service  without  gathering  for  wor- 
ship will  soon  disappear.  One  not  familiar  with  a  meeting  of  the 
Friends  dropped  in  for  worship.  After  a  long  period  of  silence,  he 
whispered  to  the  man  beside  him,  "When  does  the  service  begin?" 
"As  soon,"  he  replied,  "as  the  meeting  is  over."  Strong  churches 
with  good  worship  services  in  which  men  and  women,  boys  and 
girls  hear  the  call  to  committal  to  Christ,  are  essential  to  a  church 
which  goes  forth  into  the  secular  world  "zealous  of  good  works."

II.  Human  Relations:  War,  Peace,  Race 

The  leaven  of  the  Christian  gospel  permeating  the  democratic 
ideal  has  moved  our  society  forward  in  the  whole  field  of  human 
relations.  Throughout  most  of  the  nation  there  is  a  heartening 
move  toward  educational  and  job  opportunities,  housing  and  voting 
privileges,  and  extension  of  church  ministries  without  racial  re- 
strictions. The  message  of  Christian  love  begins  to  be  more  clearly- 
heard  in  the  face  of  continued  hate,  prejudice,  war  and  man's  in- 
humanity to  man. 

It  is  our  earnest  hope  that  Baptists  of  North  Carolina  will  do  all 
that  is  humanly  possible  to  foster  an  honorable  and  just  peace. 
We  should  keep  in  mind  always  the  great  goal  of  "peace  among 
men"  as  we  preach  the  gospel  of  the  Prince  of  Peace.  As  Christians 
it  is  our  responsibility  to  be  creatively  involved  in  seeking  solutions 
to  the  pressing  national  and  international  problems  of  prejudice, 
poverty,  injustice,  and  immorality  in  order  to  create  a  foundation 
on  which  to  build  peace  among  men  and  nations. 

We  would  encourage  Baptists  to  continue  to  pursue  a  course  to 
seek  a  settlement  of  problems  of  human  relations  in  local,  state, 
national  and  international  situations. 

It  is  beyond  our  ability  to  offer  specific  proposals  about  govern- 
ment policies,  military  strategy,  or  diplomatic  approaches  to  ne- 
gotiate our  present  political  and  international  crises.  Therefore,  we 
would  encourage  the  responsible  leadership  of  our  government  to 
continue  to  pursue  patiently  every  course  that  might  lead  to  a 
peaceful  settlement  of  all  our  problems,  both  internal  and  external, 
and  especially  the  Vietnam  conflict.  In  the  interests  of  freedom, 
liberty  and  justice  we  pray  for  an  honorable  and  just  peace  for 
the  Vietnamese  people.  We  would  encourage  our  churches  to  pray 
for  the  men  who  are  in  the  Military  Forces,  and  continue  to  nurture 
the  spiritual  growth  of  these  men  by  maintaining  communication 
with  them  during  their  absence  from  the  home  church  and  com- 
munity. 

III.  Political  and  Economic  Affairs 
A.  Affluence  and  Poverty 

The  fact  that  affluence  and  poverty  exist  side  by  side  is  an  indi- 
cation of  the  lack  of  sensitivity  as  well  as  the  inability  to  meet  the 
growing  needs  of  a  society  that  constantly  finds  itself  in  the  midst 
of  change.  This  presents  a  serious  challenge  to  the  Christian  Church 
as  well  as  to  the  total  democratic  process. 

Poverty  breeds  discontent,  distrust,  and  disunity  and  thwarts 
opportunity  and  maims  life.  We  endorse  the  idea  of  a  planned 
economy,  where  all  people  would  have  the  opportunity  to  earn  a 
reasonable  living  wage  for  a  reasonable  number  of  working  hours, 
and,  in  the  process,  enjoy  the  dignity  that  human  life  can  possess 
by  becoming  intelligent  producers  and  consumers  in  the  economy. 

The  Church  has  manifested  some  interest  in  this  direction  from 
the  time  of  its  inception.  The  present  generation  has  seen  the 


160 


Baptist  State  Convention 


manifestation  of  national  and  civic  concern  because  many  of  those 
who  are  leaders  with  these  groups  have  come  under  the  influence 
of  the  Church.  We  commend  these  groups  for  the  responsibility 
they  have  assumed  in  helping  meet  the  needs  of  poverty  stricken 
people.  We  suggest  that  the  churches  work  cooperatively  with  these 
groups  in  order  that  we  might  more  adequately  meet  human  need. 
The  Church  should  continuously  evaluate  the  work  that  is  being 
done  in  this  area  and  where  other  groups,  either  individually  or  in 
cooperation  with  the  Church,  are  not  meeting  specific  needs,  the 
Church  should  accept  this  as  an  area  of  major  concern. 

We  look  with  favor  on  attempts  of  institutions  of  higher  educa- 
tion to  provide  courses  that  will  enable  students  more  adequately 
to  understand  people  that  have  grown  up  in  disadvantaged  areas. 
We  encourage  these  institutions  to  provide  a  vocational  emphasis 
that  will  enable  students  to  work  more  effectively  with  under- 
privileged groups.  We  further  endorse  programs  of  adult  educa- 
tion that  make  it  possible  for  people  to  help  themselves  and  gain 
the  dignity  that  can  come  from  being  able  to  be  self-supporting 
citizens  in  their  society. 

Where  opportunity  or  personal  initiative  and  abilities  cannot 
meet  the  vital  needs  with  poverty  stricken  people,  we  agree,  there- 
fore, to  cooperative  and  responsible  assistance. 

B.  Dissent  and  Protest 

The  majority  opinion  of  any  given  society  is  not  always  the 
right  opinion.  Nor  can  the  fact  of  majority  make  sure  that  this 
opinion  will  prevail  over  the  years.  These  are  two  reasons,  among 
others,  for  tolerance  toward  social  protest  and  dissent.  The  wise 
people  look  for  truth  and  reality  as  they  float  to  the  surface  in 
the  boiling  seas  of  social  unrest.  The  less  wise  can  think  of  nothing 
but  the  stifling  of  protest  and  the  killing  off  of  dissent.  This  often 
means  that  they  blind  themselves  and  their  contemporaries  to  pos- 
sible deficiencies.  Glaring  inequities  and  the  most  pronounced  preju- 
dices lie  hidden  in  the  placid  calm.  Existing  without  notice  they 
are  seldom  subjected  to  remedial  action.  The  demonstration  of 
protest  and  dissent  is  frequently  an  ugly  episode.  It  heats  up  the 
passions  of  all  concerned  until  the  lava  of  violence  may  hurry 
down  the  slopes  of  a  mountainous  hate.  As  a  consequence,  it  is  all 
too  easy  to  condemn  the  demonstrators  and  disparage  their  cause. 
Your  committee  hopes  that  the  nation  and  this  section  of  our  country 
will  not  make  such  a  mistake.  In  the  last  analysis,  protest  and 
dissent  offer  striking  opportunities  for  a  culture,  armed  with  its 
own  mores  and  entrenched  in  its  own  customs,  to  see  itself  as  it 
really  is.  Then  it  may  lay  down  its  arms  and  change  its  ways. 

Christians,  through  churches  and  other  media,  must  be  responsible 
for  other  attitudes  than  the  forgoing  in  the  total  context  of  this 
question.  Although  in  the  light  of  the  teachings  and  example  of 
Jesus  Christ,  they  can  hardly  condemn  every  act  and  all  forms  of 
protest,  neither  should  they  offer  a  blanket  endorsement.  The 
Church  has  always  realized  that  there  is  a  proper  time  for  civil

disobedience.  But  this  has  depended  more  upon  its  intuitive  sense 
of  righteousness  and  upon  the  leadership  of  the  Holy  Spirit.  The 
church's  scriptures  are  weighted  on  the  opposite  side.  "Let  every 
person  be  subject  to  the  governing  authorities.  For  there  is  no 
authority  except  from  God,  and  those  that  exist  have  been  instituted 
by  God."  Thus  the  times  for  civil  disobedience  are  narrow  in  scope 
and  infrequent  as  to  their  occurrence.  When  all  recourses  to  chang- 
ing or  eliminating  unjust  laws  have  failed,  civil  disobedience  may 
be  the  only  resort.  In  that  event,  those  who  break  the  law  should 
expect  to  be  judged  and  disciplined  by  it.  The  sincerity  of  their 
purpose  is  hard  to  accept  unless  this  is  so. 

When  the  powers  of  civil  disobedience,  protest,  and  dissent  have 
brought  changes  in  the  laws,  then  the  protestors  must  work  in  a 
new  dimension.  They  must  assuredly  enforce  the  good  law  and 
seek  to  make  it  as  effective  as  possible.  Nor  can  they  pile  one  act 
of  civil  disobedience  upon  another  until  they  have  toppled  every 
law  they  think  unjust  in  an  unbroken  sequence  of  protest.  Bad 
laws  are  preferable  to  anarchy.  When  protest  has  brought  corrective 
changes  to  the  body  of  law,  the  dissenters  must  be  patient  with 
the  slow  growing  fruit  of  their  own  labors.  The  courts  do  not  move 
with  the  fluid  and  snakelike  swiftness  of  a  street  demonstration. 
Like  the  "Mills  of  the  gods"  they  grind  slowly  but  finely.  A  demon- 
stration to  make  the  courts  move  with  greater  speed  has  much 
less  justification  than  one  which  sought  to  change  an  injustice. 
The  riots  of  the  past  two  summers  cannot  be  commended.  They 
are  the  violence  that  comes  from  frustration  and  impatience.  They 
spew  their  bitterness  over  all  of  humankind.  They  are  motivated 
more  by  hate  than  hope.  Your  committee  recommends  the  attitude 
and  deed  of  those  groups,  which  are  now  seeking  by  every  honor- 
able means  to  hasten  the  legal  process  so  that  the  results  of  civil 
rights  legislation  may  be  effectively  realized  in  the  shortest  time 
possible.  This  is  filled  with  greater  promise  than  the  actions  of 
some  leaders  who  cannot  possibly  advance  through  the  wreckage  of 
their  own  reckless  actions. 

C.  Crime  and  Law  Enforcement 

On  May  12th  of  this  year  President  Johnson  stated  that  crime  in 
the  streets  is  the  second  greatest  problem  in  our  nation.  Few  of  us 
would  choose  to  disagree  with  this  judgment.  Crime  has  become  our 
national  disgrace,  and  any  amount  of  statistics  could  be  cited  to 
substantiate  this  contention.  In  some  urban  areas,  nearly  half  of  all 
the  residents  stay  off  the  streets  at  night  for  fear  of  attack.  More 
and  more  people  are  keeping  firearms  at  home  for  protection  and 
watchdogs  are  becoming  increasingly  popular.  Five  out  of  every 
six  boys  is  destined  to  turn  up  in  juvenile  court  for  nontraffic  of- 
fences before  he  is  eighteen  years  old.  The  over-all  crime  rate 
which  has  been  spiraling  higher  each  year  increased  20  percent 
the  first  quarter  of  this  year  over  the  same  period  last  year.  And 
unfortunately  all  statistics  we  have  reflect  only  visible  crime; 
while  we  know  that  invisible  or  secret  crime  is  more  successful 

11 


162 


Baptist  State  Convention 


and  likely  more  flagrant.  After  eighteen  months  of  study  and  re- 
search, the  President's  Commission  on  Law  Enforcement  and  Ad- 
ministration of  Justice  concluded  that  the  full  story  of  U.  S.  crime 
simply  cannot  be  reported.  It  describes  a  situation  so  bleak  that 
it  seriously  threatens  our  entire  society. 

One  area  which  this  Commission  particulary  stressed  is  that  of 
law  enforcement  and  the  Police.  Time  magazine  of  March  24, 
quotes  from  the  Commission's  findings  as  follows:  "Clearly  the  U.  S. 
expects  a  great  deal  from  its  law  enforcers  —  and  gives  them  little. 
Everywhere  in  the  country,  police  facilities  are  understaffed,  police- 
men are  underpaid  and  inadequately  trained.  To  make  matters 
worse,  outmoded  traditions  require  all  novice  policemen,  no  matter 
what  their  education  or  skill,  to  start  their  careers  alike  —  at 
the  bottom.  As  a  result,  it  is  almost  impossible  to  recruit  the 
college  graduates  and  specialists  so  desperately  needed  to  combat 
today's  sophisticated  criminals." 

After  many  other  revealing  and  shocking  findings  the  Commis- 
sion concludes  that  the  "Community's  most  enduring  protection 
against  crime  is  to  right  the  wrongs  and  cure  the  illnesses  that 
tempt  men  to  harm  their  neighbors."  This  is  a  desperate  plea  for 
the  Church  to  become  aware  of  the  role  it  can  play  in  helping  to 
alleviate  some  of  the  conditions  and  causes  of  crime.  We  therefore 
recommend  that  our  churches  cooperate  and  confer  with  law  en- 
forcement agencies  in  search  for  all  means  whereby  our  crime 
rate  can  be  curtailed  and  greatly  reduced.

E.  CHRISTIAN  ACTION  COMMITTEE 

In  this  era  of  cataclysmic  evolution  when:  the  very  foundation  of 
our  Christian  faith  is  assaulted  by  the  outrageous  accusation  that 
it  is  "rooted  in  L  S  D  trips";  there  is  talk  of  "Marxist  sponsored 
'psychedelic  revolutions'  ";  and  the  identifying  characteristic  of  our 
faith  "that  ye  have  love  one  to  another"  is  usurped  as  a  theme  by 
the  "hippy"  movement.  When:  "the  pill"  is  devastating  the  sexual 
mores  of  our  culture;  newly  identified  killers  the  cigaret  and  the 
motor  vehicle  are  assuming  epidemic  proportions;  organ  transplants 
are  becoming  common  place  and  the  welfare  and  care  of  the  donor 
and  the  recipient  may  become  conflictual;  euthanasia  is  a  considera- 
tion along  with  abortion  and  suicide  in  other  areas.  Under  the  fore- 
going circumstances,  your  committee  cannot  focus  clearly  only  on 
the  Christian  Action  League  and  its  current  area  of  functioning. 
However,  beyond  this,  there  is  an  amazing  lack  of  clarity  of  responsi- 
bility with  many  pertinent  issues  going  unnoticed  by  default.  In  this 
respect,  it  appears  that  our  Convention  is  in  danger  of  being  guilty 
of  failing  its  constituency. 

Therefore,  in  the  light  of  the  urgent  and  complex  moral  issues 
confronting  Christian  people  today  and  with  respect  to  the  respon- 
sibility of  Baptists  to  provide  leadership  in  the  identification  and 
solution  of  ethical  problems  to  the  uplifting  of  the  character  of  in- 
dividuals and  the  total  culture;  the  Christian  Action  Committee 
makes  the  following  recommendation:  That  a  special  committee  be 
set  up  by  the  convention:  To  study  the  feasibility  and  advisability 
of  creating  "Division  of  Christian  Ethics,"  with  a  committee  of  the 
General  Board,  Secretary,  and  such  other  staff  as  deemed  necessary, 


164 


Baptist  State  Convention 


whose  function  would  encompass  the  areas  of  responsibility  of  the 
existing  convention  Committees — Christian  Action,  Christian  Life 
and  Public  Affairs,  as  defined  in  our  by-laws. 

To  review  the  relationship  of  the  above  mentioned  committees  to 
other  organizations  outside  our  convention,  as  mentioned  in  the 
by-laws. 

Such  special  Committee  to  consist  of  seven  members  as  follows: 
the  President  of  the  General  Board,  as  chairman,  three  members 
elected  by  the  General  Board  at  its  January  meeting,  and  the  re- 
spective chairmen  of  the  committees  affected  by  this  recommen- 
dation. 

F.  REPORT  OF  HISTORICAL  COMMITTEE 

In  1959  the  Historical  Committee  of  the  Baptist  State  Convention 
recommended  the  establishment  of  a  joint  program  by  the  Convention 
and  Wake  Forest  College  for  continuing  at  a  more  intensive  level 
the  collection,  preservation,  and  use  of  Baptist  historical  materials. 
This  step  was  based  on  the  well  established  fact  that  documentary 
sources  are  absolutely  necessary  in  the  writing  of  history,  for  ac- 
curate history  cannot  be  written  from  tradition  or  a  priori  assump- 
tions. Since  1960,  when  the  new  program  became  effective,  the 
Baptist  Collection  in  the  Wake  Forest  Library  has  had  a  full-time  Di- 
rector under  whose  leadership  large  quantities  of  historical  materials 
have  been  added  to  the  invaluable  items  gathered  by  Thomas  Pitt- 
man,  Mrs.  Ethel  Taylor  Crittenden,  George  Washington  Paschal, 
and  other  earlier  collectors. 

During  the  last  fiscal  year,  333  titles  were  added  to  the  Collec- 
tion. Among  these  were  minutes  of  associations,  church  histories, 
manuscript  church  records,  a  blacksmith's  account  book,  and  the 
letters  and  diaries  of  several  individuals.  An  indication  of  the  amount 
of  work  involved  may  be  seen  in  the  fact  that  processing  these  ma- 
terials and  placing  them  where  they  could  be  readily  found  required 
the  making  of  4,793  file  cards. 

One  of  the  responsibilities  of  the  Historical  Committee  is  to  en- 
courage the  writing  and  publication  of  standard  histories  of  churches, 
associations,  and  conventions,  and  of  biographies  of  individuals.  It 
is  with  genuine  appreciation  to  the  authors  that  the  publication  of 
the  following  recent  works  is  acknowledged: 

Alice  Bradley,  A  Brief  History  of  Bethesda  Baptist  Church,  Clay- 
ton, North  Carolina,  1842-1967. 

Mary  Ann  Bridges,  Lattimore  Baptist  Church,  Seventy-fifth  Anni- 
versary, 1891-1966. 

Frances  Haywood,  The  History  of  Emerywood  Baptist  Church, 
1956-1966. 

History  Committee,  Mt.  Ruhama  Baptist  Church,  Rt.  2,  Newton, 
N.  C,  Commemorating  One  Hundred  Fifty  Years  of  Progress  for  the 
Lord,  1816-1966;  A  History  of  North  Carolina  Baptists,  M.  A. 
Huggins.

Fred  Lewis  and  Herbert  Queen,  History  of  Mountain  Creek  Bap- 
tist Church,  Gilkey,  N.  C,  1789-1965.

Progress. 

Alvin  A.  Walker,  History,  First  Baptist  Church,  Maiden,  North 
Carolina. 

If  other  such  works  were  published  last  year  the  Baptist  Collection 
would  like  to  receive  copies. 

During  the  month  of  September  1967,  the  4,905  printed  books, 
pamphlets,  and  minutes,  256  document  boxes  of  materials,  and  617 
reels  of  microfilm  which  constitute  the  Baptist  Collection  were 
moved  from  the  several  different  places  in  the  Library  where  they 
had  been  housed  to  the  new  quarters  made  available  by  Wake  Forest 
as  a  part  of  the  accelerated  development  program  for  the  University 
Library.  The  Baptist  Collection  now  has  exclusive  use  of  two  rooms, 
one  an  office  containing  176  square  feet  and  the  other  a  spacious 
room  of  2,402  square  feet  extending  across  the  east  end  of  the  build- 
ing on  the  second  floor.  The  main  room  has  1,808  linear  feet  of  ad- 
justable shelving.  The  shelves  appear  to  be  about  half  filled  now, 
which  means  that  there  is  room  for  expansion  for  several  years. 

Knowing  that  this  space  would  be  made  available  and  that  the 
Director  of  the  Baptist  Collection  would  need  secretarial  assistance 
in  order  to  make  the  Collection  available  to  the  public,  the  1966  His- 
torical Committee  recommended  that  the  Convention  find  ways  and 
means  of  providing  help  for  the  Director.  Subsequently  the  General 
Secretary-Treasurer  wrote  that  he  was  recommending  to  the  Budget 
Committee  that  $2,000  be  included  as  the  Convention's  shs  re  of  the 
expense  of  a  secretary.  If  this  is  approved  by  the  Convention  and 
matched  by  Wake  Forest  University  as  planned,  the  Baptist  Col- 
lection will  have  a  staff  of  two  persons  next  year. 

In  addition  to  housing  the  Collection  and  paying  half  of  the  salary 
costs,  Wake  Forest  University  Library  also  makes  a  direct  annual 
appropriation  for  the  purchase  of  historical  materials  for  the  Bap- 
tist Collection.  This  year  the  appropriation  is  $1,300.  On  October  2, 
1967,  the  Historical  Committee  met  in  the  new  quarters  of  the 
Baptist  Collection  and  reviewed  all  phases  of  the  work  of  the  Col- 
lection. Upon  the  motion  of  Dr.  Wyan  Washburn,  the  Committee 
voted  unanimously  to  request  that  the  Convention  match  the  Wake 
Forest  University  Library  annual  appropriation  to  the  Baptist  Col- 
lection for  the  acquisition  of  historical  materials,  with  a  top  limit 
pending  further  action  of  $2,000.  The  Committee  felt  strongly  that  in 
view  of  the  thousands  of  dollars  the  University  is  spending  on  the 
Baptist  Collection,  the  Convention  ought  to  contribute  this  much 
additional  assistance. 

In  its  October  meeting  the  Committee  also  took  preliminary  steps 
toward  making  a  study  of  records  management  procedures  for  Con- 
vention agencies,  with  a  view  to  the  preservation  of  such  records. 
Action  designed  to  bring  about  a  joint  study  by  the  Committee  and

the  North  Carolina  Department  of  Archives  and  History  of  the 
ramifications  of  preserving  the  history  and  character  of  Ft.  Caswell 
was  also  initiated. 

The  Baptist  Collection  is  growing,  is  under  professional  manage- 
ment, and  is  open  for  use  by  all  interested  persons.  Director  John 
Woodard  and  his  staff  will  be  glad  to  have  you  come  by  for  work  or 
a  visit.  !

to  borrow  money:  Campbell  College,  $225,000;  Chowan  College, 
$1,000,000;  Mars  Hill  College,  $2,000,000;  and  Meredith  College, 
$1,950,000.  These  were  all  adopted  on  their  first  reading. 

25.  E.  J.  Prevatte,  Lumberton,  chairman  Committee  on  Constitu- 
tion and  Bylaws  (after  convention  had  granted  ten  minutes  ex- 
tension of  time),  read  suggested  changes  in  the  Constitution  of 
Articles  VIII  and  IX,  and  in  the  Bylaws  of  Articles  I,  IV,  and  V. 
(cf.  pp.  76-78).  He  also  called  attention  to  the  omission  from  the 
1966  Annual  of  changes  in  Article  X  of  the  Constitution.  Other 
changes  were  recommended  for  Article  VI  of  the  Constitution  and 
Articles  II  and  IV  of  the  Bylaws,  (cf.  pp.  79-81) 

26.  Cross  introduced  a  resolution  concerning  the  appointment  of 
a  committee  "to  study  the  present  serious  problems  facing  our  col-

Baptist  State  Convention 


leges."  On  motion  of  Nane  Starnes,  Asheville,  this  was  referred  to 
the  Resolutions  Committee.  The  resolution  is  as  follows: 

RECOMMENDATION  CONCERNING  THE  APPOINTMENT  OF  A 
SPECIAL  COLLEGE  COMMITTEE 

For  three  years,  Ben  Fisher  and  Dr.  Perry  Crouch  have  tried  to 
help  create  a  better  attitude  toward  the  support  of  our  Baptist  col- 
leges and  maintain  peace  in  the  Convention.  We  were  particularly 
anxious  for  the  new  college  presidents  to  have  a  chance  to  study 
their  own  situations  and  to  formulate  their  own  ideas  as  to  the  fu- 
ture needs  and  direction  of  their  colleges.  In  keeping  with  this  pur- 
pose, we  have  discouraged  anything  that  we  believe  would  be  con- 
trary to  past  decisions  of  the  Convention  concerning  the  colleges 
until  such  time  as  a  re-evaluation  could  be  made  concerning  needs, 
possible  future  relationships  between  our  colleges  and  the  Conven- 
tion and  the  wisdom  or  possibility  of  Federal  aid  that  might  be  made 
available  to  the  colleges. 

We  seem  to  get  the  impression  that  some  of  you  feel  it  is  time  to 
study  these  matters  again  and  bring  recommendations  back  to  the 
Convention.  We  would  remind  you  there  is  always  risk  involved  in 
such  a  study.  There  will  undoubtedly  be  a  division  of  opinion  in 
the  Convention.  Such  division  could  conceivably  lead  to  actions  you 
might  not  welcome.  Division  could  hurt  the  Cooperative  Program 
in  many  churches.  However,  we  are  ready  to  suggest  the  appoint- 
ment of  such  a  committee,  if  you  wish  it  done. 

If  a  committee  is  appointed,  we  believe  it  should  be  asked  to 
study  every  phase  of  the  Baptist  college  problems  and  recommend 
a  course  of  future  action,  so  far  as  relationships  with  the  Conven- 
tion are  concerned.  Furthermore,  we  believe  the  colleges  should 
agree  to  follow  the  present  guidelines  to  the  Convention  until  this 
report  is  presented,  discussed  and  acted  upon  by  the  Convention. 
We  would,  therefore,  present  the  following  recommendation  for 
your  consideration. 

WE  RECOMMEND: 

1.  That  a  committee  of  twenty  be  nominated  by  the  Nominating 
Committee  of  the  Convention  to  study  the  present  serious  problems 
facing  our  Baptist  colleges,  such  as  their  financial  needs,  the  capital 
improvements  and  operation,  their  problems  of  maintaining  top  level 
educational  facilities  and  faculties,  future  cooperation  with  the  State 
and  Federal  Government  and  future  relationship  with  the  Baptist 
State  Convention. 

2.  That  this  committee  be  requested  to  confer  with  the  leadership 
of  our  Convention,  with  the  administrative  leadership  of  our  Baptist  \ 
colleges,  and  with  any  other  sources  that  will  help  with  solution  | 
to  the  problems  of  our  colleges  and  the  Convention.  | 

3.  That  the  committee  be  composed  of  one  trustee  from  each  of 
the  seven  college  boards,  seven  laymen  or  lay-women  at-large,  and 
six  ministers  from  different  areas  of  our  state.  We  recommend 


OF  North  Carolina 


169 


that  the  General  Secretary,  the  Secretary  of  the  Council  on  Christian 
Higher  Education,  the  President  of  the  Convention  and  the  Presi- 
dent of  the  General  Board  be  ex-officio,  non-voting  members  of 
this  committee.  This  committee  would  publish  its  report  one  month 
prior  to  the  annual  Convention  meeting  in  Raleigh,  November  11-13, 
1968. 

27.  Bob  D.  Shepherd,  Mooresville,  chairman  Public  Affairs  Com- 
mittee, indicated  certain  features  of  the  report,  as  it  reaffirmed 
confidence  in  the  first  amendment  of  the  U.  S.  Constitution,  and  set 
forth  a  reassessment  of  church-state  separation. 

28.  The  order  of  business  was  changed  to  permit  Marion  Parker, 
Troy,  chairman  Committee  on  Nominations,  to  name  members  of 
the  Committee  on  Resolutions.  These  were  elected: 

RESOLUTIONS  COMMITTEE:

Hoyle  Allred,  Gastonia 

David  Boaz,  Winston-Salem

29.  Robert  Fincher,  High  Point,  chairman  Christian  Action  Com- 
mittee, presented  the  report  as  found  in  the  Book  of  Reports  (cf. 
p.  163). 

30.  Robert  E.  Seymour,  Chapel  Hill,  spoke  in  favor  of  a  "Division 
of  Christian  Ethics,"  and  requested  that  consideration  be  given  the 
inclusion  of  the  Department  of  Inter-racial  Cooperation  in  this 
division. 

31.  The  report  was  referred  to  the  Resolutions  Committee,  since  it 
carried  a  recommendation  on  which  the  convention  was  requested 
to  take  action. 

32.  D.  P.  McFarland,  Raleigh,  presented  the  following  resolution, 
which  likewise  was  referred  to  the  Committee  on  Resolutions: 

Whereas,  there  is  a  definite  trend  towards  the  liberalization  of 
laws  regulating  the  sale  and  use  of  alcoholic  beverages,  as  evi- 
denced during  the  sessions  of  ithe  1967  North  Carolina  General  As- 
sembly, and 

Whereas,  the  taxpayers  of  the  country  have  recently  spent  1.1 


170 


Baptist  State  Convention 


million  dollars  of  Federal  funds  for  a  Cooperative  Commission  Re- 
port which  strongly  favors  the  beverage  alcohol  industry,  and  which, 
if  taken  seriously,  will  increase  and  intensify  every  problem  related 
to  drinking  beverage  alcohol,  including  such  proposals  as  lowering 
the  drinking  age  to  18  .  .  .  increasing  the  number  of  liquor  licenses 
where  children  are  served  .  .  .  making  alcohol  available  at  young 
people's  church  functions  .  .  .  and  serving  alcoholic  beverages  to 
young  people  at  recreational  and  athletic  events. 

Be  it  therefore  besolved,  that  this  Convention  reaffirm  its 
position  on  the  use  of  beverage  alcohol,  and  further,  that  this  Con- 
vention urge  the  messengers  to  ascertain  the  views  of  candidates 
and  prospective  candidates  for  seats  in  the  1969  North  Carolina 
General  Assembly  regarding  beverage  alcohol  and  other  matters 
before  the  deadline  for  filing  for  offices  passes  in  the  Spring  of  1968. 

33.  Clyde  H.  Tucker,  High  Point,  introduced  the  following,  like- 
wise referred: 

Whereas,  the  1967  North  Carolina  General  Assembly  greatly 
liberalized  the  laws  pursuant  to  the  sale  and  use  of  alcoholic  bev- 
erages, and,  whereas,  numerous  reports  indicate  the  1969  Assembly 
will  be  asked  to  further  liberalize  these  laws,  including  liquor  by 
the  drink,  and 

Whereas,  such  action  would  be  contrary  to  the  generally  accepted 
doctrines  and  covenants  of  the  churches  in  the  Baptist  State  Con- 
vention of  North  Carolina. 

Therefore,  be  it  resolved: 

1.  That  this  Convention  go  on  record  opposing  any  change  in  the 
law  which  would  increase  the  sale  and  use  of  alcoholic  beverage,  and, 

2.  That  we  appoint  a  committee  of  five,  composed  of  the  President 
of  the  Convention,  the  President  of  the  General  Board,  the  General 
Secretary  and  Treasurer  of  the  Convention,  the  Chairman  of  the 
Christian  Life  Committee,  and  the  Chairman  of  the  Christian  Action 
Committee  to  invite  representatives  of  other  denominations  and  of- 
ficers of  the  Christian  Action  League  to  join  them  in  initiating 
plans  ito  oppose  any  legislation  further  liberalizing  liquor  laws,  and, 

3.  That  this  Committee  bring  reports  to  the  Executive  Committee 
of  the  General  Board,  the  General  Board  itself,  and  to  the  general 
public  through  the  Biblical  Recorder,  Charity  and  Children,  and 
other  news  media,  and, 

4.  That,  if  funds  are  necessary,  this  Committee  shall  make  a  request 
to  the  Executive  Committee  of  the  General  Board. 

34.  George  J.  Griffin,  Winston-Salem,  chairman,  presented  the 
report  of  the  Christian  Life  Committee,  as  found  in  the  Book  of 
Reports  (cf.  pp.  157-162),  emphasizing:  (1)  the  church  in  a  secular 
society;  (2)  human  relations:  war,  peace,  race;  (3)  political  and 
economic  affairs,  with  attention  to  affluence  and  poverty,  dissent 
and  protest,  and  crime  and  law  enforcement. 

35.  The  Recording  Secretary  received  permission  to  send  greet- 


OF  North  Carolina 


171 


ings  to  state  conventions  meeting  this  week.  The  following  message 
was  sent  to  twelve  groups:  "In  the  spirit  of  our  Convention  theme, 
'Doing  together  what  we  cannot  do  apart,'  we  greet  you  in  Christian 
fellowship  and  eagerness  to  serve  wherever  there  is  need." 

36.  A  choir  representing  98  missionary  appointees  at  Ridgecrest, 
then  sang,  under  the  direction  of  Clint  Kimbrough,  Brooksville, 
Florida,  with  Miss  Mildred  Thomas  as  accompanist:  "O  Zion  Haste" 
and  "Heralds  of  Christ." 

37.  A.  Douglas  Aldrich,  Gastonia,  alternate  to  preach  convention 
sermon,  read  from  Acts  1:1-9  and  led  in  prayer. 

38.  T.  L.  Cashwell,  Jr.,  Raleigh,  delivered  the  convention  sermon 
on  "Thy  Kingdom  Come."  Against  a  background  of  defeat  and 
pessimism  that  ithe  kingdom  of  God  has  not  come,  the  preacher 
proclaimed  that  the  kingdom  has  come,  must  come,  and  will  continue 
to  come  wherever  God's  people  are  found.  This  must  be  accom- 
plished by  an  act  of  God  Himself  in  regenerating  and  moving  every 
part.  This  will  transform  persons  and  society.  This  prayer,  which 
may  have  begun  with  despair,  will  continue  in  hope,  and  result  in 
commitment. 

39.  The  choir  of  missionary  appointees  sang  "The  Lord's  Prayer" 
(Malotte). 

40.  The  benediction  for  this  session  was  pronounced  by  J.  R. 
Bouldin,  Hamilton. 

TUESDAY  AFTERNOON— NOVEMBER  14,  1967 

41.  Following  a  musical  meditation  by  Willis  Abernathy,  the  choir 
sang  "Immortal,  Invisible"  (Thiman)  and  the  congregation  followed 
with  "I  Love  Thy  Kingdom,  Lord." 

42.  With  the  choir  reading  responsively,  Clarence  Cranford  led 
in  reading  scriptural  selections  on  the  church.  The  congregation 
sang,  "The  Church's  One  Foundation."  Cranford's  devotional  message 
centered  around  ithe  incident  of  four  friends  bringing  a  paralyzed 
man  to  Jesus  after  tearing  up  the  roof.  This  he  discussed  with 
application  to  our  experiences :  ( 1 )  Looking  through  the  eyes  of  the 
owner  of  the  house;  (2)  Looking  through  the  eyes  of  the  four 
friends;  and  (3)  Looking  through  the  eyes  of  Jesus. 

43.  Nane  Starnes,  Asheville,  one  of  four  North  Carolina  members 
on  the  Executive  Committee  of  the  Southern  Baptist  Convention, 
outlined  four  chief  obligations  of  the  Committee  as  being:  (1)  to 
coordinate  the  work  of  the  boards  and  agencies  of  the  Convention; 
(2)  to  act  for  the  Southern  Baptist  Convention  when  it  is  not  in 
session;  (3)  to  provide  leadership;  and  (4)  to  serve  through  four 
areas  of  work:  administration,  program,  public  relations,  and 
finance.  He  recognized  John  Williams,  whose  duties  are  in  the 
field  of  finance  for  the  Executive  Committee.  Williams  called  at- 
tention to  the  Committee's  having  59  members  from  26  states.  It 
determines  sites  for  the  annual  meetings  of  the  Convention,  re-

ceives  and  distributes  receipts  from  the  Cooperative  Program,  which 
during  the  past  ten  years  had  increased  by  69  percent. 

44.  The  time  having  arrived  for  the  election  of  officers,  President 
Bates  announced  the  following  tellers:  Tom  Womble,  Bladenboro, 
Chairman,  Edwin  Young,  Canton,  Grady  Faulk,  Pineville,  C.  R. 
Pierce,  Jr.,  West  Asheville,  John  Grant,  Asheville,  J.  D.  Williams, 
Mount  Holly,  Lynn  Weston,  Mecklenburg  Association,  Leroy  Cooper, 
Salisbury,  and  Lyman  McDonald,  Charlotte. 

45.  Bates,  having  served  as  President  for  (two  years  and  there- 
fore not  eligible  for  reelection,  declared  the  floor  open  for  nomi- 
nations for  President. 

Isaac  Terrell,  Thomasville,  nominated  J.  Boyce  Brooks,  Boone. 
Leland  K.  Stephens,  Charlotte,  nominated  Thurman  B.  Stone, 
Charlotte. 

W.  A.  Snyder,  Asheville,  nominated  E.  W.  Price,  Jr.,  High  Point. 
Randall  Lolley,   Winston-Salem,  nominated   Claud   B.  Bowen, 
Greensboro. 

Ray  Harrington,  Concord,  nominated  J.  Clyde  Yates,  Sr.,  Charlotte. 

On  motion  to  close  nominations,  the  vote  was  taken  and  carried. 
The  first  ballot  necessitated  a  runoff  between  Brooks  and  Bowen. 
This  resulted  in  the  election  of  Bowen  as  President. 

46.  President  Bates  read  greetings  from  the  Kentucky  and  Louisi- 
ana Conventions.  Later  messages  came  from  the  following  states: 
Alabama,  Florida,  Georgia,  Hawaii,  Kansas,  Maryland,  Oklahoma, 
South  Carolina,  Tennessee,  and  Virginia. 

47.  On  call  for  the  election  of  the  First  Vice-President,  Joe  Larri- 
more,  Tarboro,  nominated  David  M.  Britt,  Fairmont  and  Raleigh. 
W.  A.  Honeycutt,  Valdese,  moved  nominations  cease  and  Britt  be 
elected.  This  was  carried  unanimously  and  Britt  was  elected  First 
Vice-President. 

48.  Edison  Hill,  Asheville,  nominated  Cecil  E.  Sherman,  Ashe- 
ville, for  Second  Vice-President.  Howard  Holly,  Burgaw,  moved 
nominations  cease  and  Sherman  be  elected.  It  was  so  ordered. 

49.  For  Recording  Secretary,  E.  Norfleet  Gardner  was  nominated 
by  John  Knight,  and  reelected. 

50.  For  Parliamentarian,  Joe  Sanders,  Asheville,  nominated 
James  M.  Bulman,  East  Spencer,  who  was  reelected. 

51.  For  Trustees,  Leon  Spencer,  Raleigh,  moved  the  reelection  of 
R.  L.  McMillan,  Raleigh,  T.  Lacy  Williams,  Raleigh,  and  N.  M. 
Gurley,  Raleigh.  These  were  reelected. 

52.  John  H.  Knight,  Asheville,  made  the  following  motion: 

I  move  that  this  Convention  go  on  record  as  approving  the 
participation  of  Mars  Hill  College  in  the  Title  III  program  for 
faculty  development  as  presented  in  the  Higher  Education  Act  of 
1965. 


OF  North  Carolina

WORDS  OF  EXPLANATION 

Under  this  program  it  is  the  faculty  member  who  is  the  recipient 
of  the  benefits,  rather  than  the  college.  Since  this  is  true,  it  may 
not  even  be  necessary  to  bring  this  maitter  to  the  Convention. 
However,  the  constitution  says  "receive  aid  either  directly  or  in- 
directly," and  we  want  to  keep  step  with  the  convention. 

As  a  Senior  College,  Mars  Hill  finds  it  necessary  to  upgrade  its 
work  to  become  accredited.  Our  major  need  relates  to  the  faculty. 
Forty  percent  of  our  teachers  must  have  the  Ph.D.  degree.  Sixty 
percent  of  the  faculty  must  have  at  least  three  years  training  beyond 
the  bachelor  degree.  This  is  a  big  step  for  Mars  Hill.  Under  Title  III 
our  faculty  could  be  rapidly  upgraded. 

Here  is  how  it  would  work.  Mars  Hill  could  enter  into  an  agree- 
ment with  the  University  of  Georgia: 

1.  Aid  would  be  extended  to  the  individual  faculty  member  to 
pursue  his  study  toward  the  Ph.D. 

2.  A  teaching  Fellow  from  the  University  of  Georgia  would  be 
paid  by  the  fund  to  teach  at  Mars  Hill  while  the  faculty  member 
is  away. 

3.  Counselors  from  the  University  of  Georgia  would  receive  pay 
as  consultants  to  work  with  our  faculty  in  upgrading  the 
curriculum. 

This  is  a  temporary  arrangement,  to  last  only  two  years.  During 
those  two  years  our  faculty  could  be  greatly  improved  as  would  be 
our  chances  for  accreditation. 

H.  L.  Ferguson,  Charlotte,  expressed  a  wish  to  know  more  about 
the  motion  and  moved  to  table  it.  The  body  refused  to  act  ac- 
cordingly. 

53.  Joseph  T.  McLean,  Shelby,  expressed  the  view  that,  since  this 
was  in  line  with  the  approval  of  the  trustees  of  Mars  Hill,  he 
hoped  the  motion  of  Knight  would  pass. 

54.  James  M.  Bulman,  parliamentarian,  expressed  his  opinion 
that  this  was  an  unconstitutional  motion. 

55.  A  vote  was  taken  on  the  motion  of  Knight  and  passed  by  the 
body. 

56.  Ferguson  called  for  division. 

57.  Leroy  Parker,  Greensboro,  called  for  the  previous  question, 
but  the  parliamentarian  ruled  that  the  president  was  correct  in  his 
ruling. 

58.  Whereupon  the  vote  on  Knight's  motion  was  taken  by  stand- 
ing and  was  carried. 

59.  A  motion  to  extend  the  time  for  miscellaneous  business  ten 
minutes  was  carried. 

60.  W.  W.  Finlator,  Raleigh,  offered  the  following  resolution: 

Whereas  this,  our  longest  war,  in  Vietnam  increases  with  each 
passing  day  in  fury  and  in  futility,  and 


174 


Baptist  State  Convention 


Whereas  the  war  threatens  not  only  the  complete  destruction  of 
the  people  and  resources  of  Vietnam  and  the  continued  destruction 
of  the  youth  and  resources  of  our  country,  but  also  threatens  the 
peace  and  security  of  the  international  community,  and 

Whereas  the  leadership  of  the  United  Nations,  the  major  national 
powers  of  the  world,  whose  friendship  we  respect  and  need,  and 
national  and  international  religious  bodies  have  urged  upon  our 
nation  the  wisdom  of  staying  its  hand  in  Vietnam, 

Now  THEREFORE  BE  IT  RESOLVED  that  it  is  the  consensus  of  the 
Baptist  State  Convention  of  North  Carolina  meeting  in  Asheville 
November  14,  1967,  that 

1.  The  unconditional  and  indefinite  stopping  of  the  bombing  of 
North  Vietnam  by  the  United  States,  under  the  supervision  of  the 
United  Nations,  is  the  necessary  precondition  for  negotiations. 

2.  As  the  mightiest  nation  in  history,  and  therefore  wit^h  power  to 
initiate  action  for  peace,  the  stopping  of  the  bombing  should  be 
followed  by  the  voluntary  cessation  of  the  killing  and  destruction 
in  both  North  and  South  Vietnam  on  land,  and  sea,  and  in  the  air, 
again  under  the  supervision  of  the  United  Nations. 

3.  With  the  more  favorable  atmosphere  thus  developed  for  negotia- 
tions, the  Geneva  Conference  of  1954  should  be  re-convened,  and 
also  the  International  Commissions,  under  whose  auspices  negotia- 
tion shall  be  carried  out  by  all  appropriate  parties  to  the  dispute, 
including  the  Vietcong,  on  the  basis  of  the  principles  of  the  Geneva 
Agreement. 

4.  The  consideration,  among  other  matters,  of  such  negotiable 
matters  as  provision  for  the  beginning,  and  stages  of  the  with- 
drawal of  all  outside  military  force,  general  amnesty,  and  the  making 
of  a  treaty  of  peace  with  provisions  for  the  appropriate  self-determi- 
nation of  the  Vietnamese  people,  and  the  guaranteed  neutrality 
of  Vietnam,  North  and  South,  shall  follow;  all,  again,  to  be  under 
the  supervision  of  the  United  Nations. 

5.  In  addition  to  what  is  already  being  done  for  reconstruction  by 
a  number  of  the  nations,  consideration  shall  be  given  to  a  minimum 
of  a  10  billion  dollar  program  to  be  voluntarily  financed  by  the 
affluent  powers,  for  the  reconstruction  of  Southeast  Asia,  including 
North  and  South  Vietnam,  also  under  the  supervision  of  the  United 
Nations. 

Conclusion:  These  resolutions,  to  our  mind,  are  positive  and 
constructive  and  have  the  humane  values  which  result  from  the 
stopping  of  the  bombing,  and  the  cessation  of  the  killing,  and  the 
destruction  of  the  country  whose  people  have  been  ravaged  by 
war  for  years,  and  the  death  and  maiming  of  our  finest  youth  and 
the  exhaustion  of  our  most  basic  resources.  The  resolutions  not 
only  have  these  humane  values  but  also  offer  a  program  of  recon- 
struction for  all  the  people  of  Southeast  Asia. 

Copies  of  this  consensus  are  to  be  sent  to  the  President,  the 
Congress,  and  the  State  Department  of  the  United  States  of  America.

61.  Nane  Starnes  moved  that  the  Convention  not  consider  this 
resolution.  Carried. 

62.  James  Helvey,  Thomasville,  offered  the  following  resolution: 

Whereas,  the  gospel  declares  that  the  disciples  of  Jesus  are  known 
by  their  love  for  one  another,  and 

Whereas,  Christendom's  greatest  problem  has  been  its  "divided 
witness,"  and 

Whereas,  the  reluctance  of  Baptists,  as  a  group,  to  join  with  other 
Christian  denominations  has  not  been  understood  either  by  some 
of  our  own  people  or  by  others,  and 

Whereas,  many  ministers,  church  members  and  leaders  of  our 
convention  have  found  opportunities  for  working  with  Christians  of 
other  faiths,  and 

Whereas,  the  work  of  the  North  Carolina  Council  of  Churches 
with  migrants,  world  relief,  and  social  issues  has  been  for  the 
benefit  of  all  the  peoples  of  our  state,  and 

Whereas,  autonomous  Baptist  Churches,  cooperating  with  the 
North  Carolina  Baptist  State  Convention,  can  and  are  affiliating 
with  the  North  Carolina  Council  of  Churches; 

Be  it  therefore  resolved,  that  the  North  Carolina  Baptist  State 
Convention,  in  order  that  it  may  in  no  way  be  a  stumbling-block 
to  the  peoples  of  God  and  in  order  that  we  may  offer  a  Christian 
witness  to  and  for  all  the  people  of  North  Carolina,  commend  the 
work  of  the  North  Carolina  Council  of  Churches  and  commend 
Baptist  churches  and  their  members  who  join  with  Christians  of  all 
faiths  in  doing  the  work  of  Christ's  kingdom  locally  and  across  the 
state. 

The  chair  called  the  resolution  out  of  order  and  was  sustained  in 
his  decision  after  an  appeal  from  the  ruling  was  sought  by  Helvey. 

63.  Helvey  then  introduced  another  resolution,  as  follows: 

Whereas  our  Convention  is  again  being  asked  to  consider  the 
problem  of  alcoholic  beverages,  and  whereas  national  attention  is 
being  called  to  the  problems  of  deceptive  and  harmful  advertising 
by  the  furor  raised  over  the  F.C.C.  ruling  that  equal  time  must  be 
given  to  telling  of  the  dangers  of  smoking,  and  whereas  Senators 
Wayne  Morse  and  Strom  Thurmond  have  introduced  bills  in  the 
current  session  of  ithe  United  States  Senate  relative  to  this  matter, 
and 

Whereas  the  states  of  Washington  and  Oregon  have  local  restric- 
tions on  the  advertising  of  beer  and  alcoholic  beverages,  and 

Whereas  North  Carolina  is  being  invaded  by  two  proposed  beer 
breweries  which  will  use  up  valuable  water  and  land  resources 
for  a  non-essential  industry  in  our  state,  as  well  as  further  con- 
dition our  people  to  accept  and  to  depend  on  their  products,  and 

Whereas  state  legislators  and  other  government  officials  have 


176 


Baptist  State  Convention 


financial  interests  in  businesses  that  will  profit  from  the  further 
liberalization  of  our  state's  liquor  laws, 

Be  it  therefore  resolved,  that:  1.  The  North  Carolina  Baptist 
State  Convention  endorse  Senate  bills  2500  and  2202, 

2.  The  1967  Baptist  State  Convention  express  its  opposition  to 
opening  up  our  state  and  its  resources  to  the  manufacture  of  any 
alcoholic  beverages  for  commercial  purposes, 

3.  The  committee  recommended  by  Rev.  Clyde  Tucker  also  take 
into  consideration  the  matters  pertaining  to  this  resolution  as  it 
seeks  to  mobilize  action  opposing  further  exploitation  of  the  people 
of  North  Carolina  by  the  alcoholic  beverage  industries. 

This  was  referred  to  ithe  Committee  on  Resolutions. 

64.  Howard  Holly,  chairman,  moved  that  the  reports  on  Christian 
Social  Services  in  the  Book  of  Advanced  Reports  be  adopted.  He 
then  recognized  Raymond  Stone,  Southern  Pines,  chairman  of  the 
trustees  of  the  Children's  Homes,  who  introduced  the  Children's 
Handbell  Choir,  which  played  some  numbers  under  the  direction  of 
Kenneth  Little.  Afterwards  Stone  spoke  on  the  ministry  of  the 
Children's  Homes. 

Gordon  Conklin,  Kinston,  chairman  trustees  of  the  Baptist  Homes 
for  the  Aging,  presented  Mrs.  Grace  Truesdell,  of  the  Hayes  Home, 
who  spoke  in  regard  to  this  phase  of  Social  Service. 

Carter  M.  Preslar,  Asheville,  chairman  Board  of  Trustees  of  the 
Baptist  Hospital,  spoke  to  that  part  of  the  report,  and  introduced 
Gordon  Phillips,  Trenton,  trustee  and  vice-president  of  the  Helene 
Fuld  Foundation  of  Trenton,  N.  J.  Phillips  also  is  a  graduate  of 
the  Wake  Forest  Law  School  and  president  of  the  Northern  Alumni 
of  Wake  Forest.  In  1966  he  was  awarded  a  distinguished  service 
award  in  law  from  Wake  Forest.  Phillips  stated  that  the  purpose  of 
the  Foundation  was  primarily  improving  nurses'  training  in  the 
Nursing  Schools  of  the  country.  In  appreciation  of  the  work  done  at 
the  Baptist  Hospital  and  wishing  to  strengthen  its  Nursing  School, 
this  $45,000,000  Foundation  has  just  given  $250,000  for  a  para- 
medical building  for  the  School  of  Nursing  in  connection  with  the 
Bowman  Gray  School  of  Medicine.  Appreciation  was  expressed  to 
Mr.  Phillips  for  this  generous  bequest. 

65.  Robert  Simms  asked  that  the  report  on  Christian  Higher 
Education  be  deferred  to  a  place  arranged  for  it  tomorrow 
morning.  Granted. 

66.  Leon  Spencer  moved  the  adoption  of  the  report  of  the  trustees 
of  the  Convention.  Carried. 

67.  Henry  Stroupe,  Winston-Salem,  read  the  report  of  the  His- 
torical Committee,  as  found  in  the  Book  of  Reports. 

68.  The  benediction  was  pronounced  by  Clarence  Godwin,  Oxford. 

TUESDAY  EVENING— NOVEMBER  14,  1967 

69.  The  Tuesday  evening  session  was  preceded  by  the  organ  re- 
cital given  by  Willis  Abernathy.  After  the  choral  call  to  worship, 


OF  North  Carolina 


177 


"Let  Us  Arise  and  Sing"  (Young),  the  congregation  joined  in  singing 
"Blessed  Assurance."  The  choir  continued  the  musical  program  by 
singing  "The  Beatitudes"  (Evans). 

Then  Clarence  Cranford  led  in  another  helpful  devotional  mes- 
sage, using  as  a  background  the  storm  at  sea  in  Paul's  voyage  to 
Rome.  He  called  attention  to  a  conference  with  a  college  girl 
who  was  troubled  about  her  religious  experience.  From  the  inter- 
view he  found  four  anchors  that  may  be  used  in  a  storm  in  which 
we  may  be  caught.  They  are  the  conviction  that  God  is  love,  that 
Christ  is  God's  supreme  disclosure  of  Himself,  made  for  man's  re- 
demption, that  man  is  an  immortal  creature,  and  that  the  fellowship 
of  Christian  believers  in  the  church  is  real. 

70.  Under  miscellaneous  business,  H.  L.  Ferguson  expressed 
opposition  to  the  resolution  offered  by  Knight  in  behalf  of  the 
Mars  Hill  trustees  and  stated  that  he  planned  to  move  to  rescind 
the  action  tomorrow. 

71.  Henry  Morgan,  chairman  Committee  on  Resolutions,  reported 
favorably  on  the  General  Board  recommendation  that  a  Committee 
of  20  be  nominated  to  study  the  present  serious  problems  facing 
our  Baptist  colleges  and  report  its  findings  to  the  Convention  meet- 
ing a  year  hence.  The  resolution  was  adopted. 

72.  O.  M.  Burckhalter,  Lilesville,  referring  to  the  action  of  the 
Convention  this  afternoon  in  refusing  to  consider  the  Finlator  reso- 
lution concerning  our  involvement  in  Vietnam,  offered  the  following 
resolution,  which  was  referred  to  the  Resolutions  Committee: 

Whereas,  action  taken  by  the  Baptist  State  Convention  in  session 
this  afternoon  declined  consideration  of  any  discussion  or  action  on 
resolutions  pertaining  to  the  war  in  Vietnam;  and 

Whereas,  many  of  us  are  veterans  with  knowledge  of  what  the 
men  in  Vietnam  are  experiencing;  and 

Whereas,  many  of  us  have  sons  and  other  loved  ones  now  serving 
in  Vietnam;  and 

Whereas,  Southern  Baptists  have  missionaries  in  Vietnam, 

Therefore  be  it  resolved,  that  we  ask  all  Christians  to  join  us 
in  praying  for  our  men  in  Vietnam,  for  all  Christian  missionaries, 
and  others  who  are  working  for  peace  in  Vietnam;  and 

Resolved,  that  we  ask  all  Christians  to  join  us  in  praying  for  the 
leaders  of  our  nation;  and  be  it  further 

Resolved,  that  we  encourage  our  President  and  all  other  persons 
in  places  of  responsibility  to  pray,  seeking  God's  will  and  God's 
help  in  finding  a  just  and  honorable  solution  to  the  problems  con- 
fronting our  nation;  and  that  a  copy  of  this  resolution  be  sent  to 
the  President  of  the  United  States. 

73.  Orville  Scott,  editor  Charity  and  Children,  presented  the 
1967  Award  for  Baptist  Mother  of  the  Year  to  Mrs.  Hatcher  Mel- 
ton, Caroleen.  Several  of  her  nine  children  and  grandchildren  were 


12 


178 


Baptist  State  Convention 


present,  as  well  as  her  husband.  Her  pastor,  Richard  Spencer,  spoke 
appreciatively  of  the  Christian  witness  of  Mrs.  Melton  and  her 
family,  and  President  Bates  presented  the  1967  plaque  to  her. 

74.  President  Bates  then  introduced  two  faithful  members  of  the 
Charlotte  First  Church:  Harry  Iden,  President  of  the  Brotherhood, 
and  James  Estes,  Stewardship  Campaign  leader. 

75.  Joseph  R.  Estes,  Home  Mission  Board  representative,  was 
then  introduced  by  the  President.  Estes  than  presented  W.  A.  Mitchi- 
ner,  Oxford,  a  certificate  of  appreciation  for  six  years  of  helpful 
service  on  the  Home  Mission  Board.  Representing  a  department  i;o 
minister  to  "non-evangelicals,"  he  spoke  of  the  aim  of  the  depart- 
ment to  relate  the  gospel  as  preached  by  our  denomination  to  other 
Baptist  groups  and  to  those  not  Baptists.  He  pointed  out  four  areas 
of  work  of  this  department:  (1)  ministry  to  Jewish  people;  (2) 
ministry  to  Catholics;  (3)  ministry  to  various  sects,  such  as  Mor- 
mons, Rosicrusians,  and  others;  (The  speaker  noted  that,  although 
Southern  Baptists  outnumber  the  Mormons  four  to  1,  we  do  not 
send  one-third  as  many  missionaries  as  they)  and  (4)  endeavor 
to  undergird  all  work  of  the  denomination,  recognizing  the  need  to 
move  out  from  church  buildings  into  the  market  and  places  of 
business. 

76.  Joseph  Stroud  led  the  congregation  in  singing  "He  Lives!" 

77.  The  president  introduced  Joe  Burnette,  minister  of  education 
of  the  Charlotte  First  Church,  and  T.  W.  Wilson,  an  assistant  of 
Billy  Graham. 

78.  A  male  quartette  of  ministers  of  music  sang  "More  Like  Jesus 
Would  I  Be." 

79.  Secretary  W.  Perry  Crouch  presented  to  a  packed  auditorium 
Billy  Graham,  who  had  just  completed  a  notable  evangelistic  cam- 
paign in  Tokyo. 

80.  Graham  spoke  enthusiastically  of  the  spiritual  revival  that 
had  resulted  in  over  16,000  decisions  for  Christ  in  the  Tokyo 
meetings.  In  spite  of  a  wave  of  religious  fervor  of  different  sects, 
notably  the  Soka  Gakkai,  whose  generous  giving  and  fervor,  and 
political  agitation  that  has  resulted  in  controlling  30  percent  of  the 
seats  of  the  city  council  in  Tokyo,  Graham  felt  that  a  mighty 
spiritual  revival  in  the  East  may  indicate  the  wave  of  the  future  for 
Christianity.  The  speaker  read  from  I  Corinthians  the  first  chapter 
(Phillips  translation),  from  which  he  deduced  the  question  for  all 
Christians:  How  can  we  make  the  gospel  relevant  in  our  day?  He 
declared  that  man's  heart,  his  needs  and  longings,  are  the  same 
everywhere,  although  we  live  in  a  confused  and  bewildered  world, 
politically  and  socially.  Graham  pointed  out  that  there  was  a  great 
deal  of  legislation,  but  that  it  was  not  the  answer.  Singling  out  the 
problem  of  race,  he  said  that  unless  we  have  the  supernatural  love 
of  God  in  our  hearts,  there  is  no  way  to  solve  the  problem  of  race. 
He  reminded  that,  while  the  presentation  of  the  gospel  may  change, 
its  content  remains  the  same.  Graham  drew  three  conclusions  for 


OF  North  Carolina 


179 


the  audience:  (1)  The  proclamation  of  the  gospel  may  bring  about 
a  moral  reform;  (2)  The  preaching  of  the  gospel  may  bring  about  a 
needed  social  reform;  and  (3)  The  preaching  of  the  gospel  is  the 
message  on  evangelism.  He  insisted:  "Preach  the  gospel  with  sim- 
plicity, urgency,  and  love." 

81.  The  benediction  was  pronounced  by  Joseph  Estes,  Atlanta. 

WEDNESDAY  MORNING— NOVEMBER  15,  1967 

82.  President  Bates  called  the  body  to  order  after  the  organ 
meditation  by  Willis  Abernathy.  The  period  was  interspersed  with 
music  by  congregation  and  choir  and  the  devotional  message  by 
Dr.  Cranford.  The  convention  choir,  under  the  direction  of  Charles 
Gatwood,  sang  "God  of  Our  Fathers"  and  "Great  Is  Thy  Faithfulness" 
(arr.  by  Landon).  The  congregation  sang  "Blessed  Be  the  Name" 
and  "Breathe  on  Me." 

83.  Cranford's  message  on  the  Holy  Spirit  was  based  on  Jesus' 
promise  in  John  14:16  "I  will  pray  the  Father,  and  he  shall  give 
you  another  Comforter."  The  speaker  declared  that  the  programs  of 
our  churches  appeared  to  be  all  right  but  asked  where  was  the 
power.  He  deplored  the  neglect  given  this  Person  of  the  Trinity, 
calling  attention  to  (1)  the  characteristics  of  personality  in  Him; 
(2)  the  intimacy  established  with  God  through  Him;  and  (3)  the 
potency  of  the  Holy  Spirit  that  produces  extraordinary  witnessing 
on  the  part  of  those  thus  empowered. 

84.  The  recording  secretary  announced  registration  as  of  Tuesday 
evening  at  2,802,  including  2,467  messengers  and  335  visitors.  (A 
final  report  Wednesday  noon  gave  a  total  of  2,832,  including  2,496 
messengers  and  336  visitors.) 

85.  The  President  called  on  Ben  Fisher,  Secretary  of  the  Council 
on  Christian  Higher  Education,  who  asked  Robert  N.  Simms,  Jr., 
chairman  of  the  Council,  to  present  newly  elected  presidents  of  the 
schools:  Norman  A.  Wiggins,  of  Campbell  College,  and  James  Ralph 
Scales,  of  Wake  Forest  University.  Simms  also  recognized  the  other 
five  presidents  on  the  platform. 

86.  Fisher  called  attention  to  the  report  of  the  Council  in  the 
Book  of  Reports,  and  emphasized  the  importance  of  "Baptist  College 
Day." 

87.  E.  J.  Prevatte,  Lumberton,  discussed  the  BEST  section  in  the 
report  (cf.  p.  129). 

88.  Gordon  Maddrey,  Secretary  of  the  Baptist  Foundation,  re- 
cently recovered  from  a  serious  heart  attack,  was  recognized.  He 
called  on  Claude  F.  Gaddy  to  speak  to  the  report. 

89.  Gaddy  reported  on  the  progress  of  the  Foundation,  and 
urged  the  importance  of  making  a  will,  not  only  for  the  family, 
but  also  for  the  causes  of  the  Kingom  of  God. 

90.  Gilmer  Cross,  appearing  to  present  recommendations  of  Gen- 
eral Board,  called  attention  to  the  twenty-eighth  wedding  anniver- 


180

approved. 

101.  Meredith  College  to  borrow  $1,950,000.  Motion  to  adopt

102.  General  Board  President  Cross  ithen  asked  E.  J.  Prevatte  to 
present  the  recommendations  concerning  changes  in  constitution 
and  bylaws,  as  found  on  pages  76-81. 

Prevatte  first  pointed  out  proposed  constitutional  changes  for 
Article  VIII.  James  Helvey,  Thomasville,  inquired  concerning  the 
autonomy  of  the  State  and  Southern  conventions  and  their  rela- 
tions, and  wished  to  know  more  about  the  reason  for  the  proposed 
change.  Carl  Bates  and  W.  P.  Crouch  indicated  this  might  correlate 
more  closely  the  work  of  the  two  conventions.  Adopted. 

103.  Prevatte  then  called  attention  to  changes  in  Articles  IX,  I, 
IV  and  V,  where  the  word  "education"  would  be  changed  to 
"higher  education."  On  motion,  adopted. 

104.  Constitutional  changes  in  Article  IV,  B.,  3.,  b  and  d,  and

two-thirds  vote  of  messengers  present. 


OF  North  Carolina 


181 


106.  Proposed  changes  in  the  Bylaws  followed.  Those  concerning 
"Duties  of  Committees"  in  Article  II  were  adopted. 

107.  Article  IV.,  B  of  the  Bylaws,  dealing  with  "The  Organization 
of  the  General  Board"  was  changed  by  vote  as  proposed. 

108.  Secretary  Perry  Crouch  indicated  the  heartfelt  appreciation 
of  himself  and  family  concerning  the  extreme  illness  of  Mrs.  Crouch. 
(Mrs.  Crouch  died  in  the  Memorial  Mission  Hospital,  Asheville, 
November  22,  of  a  malignancy  with  which  she  had  heroically  lived 
for  the  past  two  years.  ENG) 

109.  Secretary  Crouch  recognized  E.  Norfleet  Gardner  with  a 
word  of  appreciation  for  the  help  given  by  him  in  editing  A  History 
of  North  Carolina  Baptists,  and  presented  one  of  the  first  copies 
of  the  printed  volume  to  him.  Gardner  responded  by  expressing  ap- 
preciation for  having  the  privilege  of  being  with  Dr.  Huggins  in 
the  great  work  he  had  made  ready  for  North  Carolina  Baptists. 

110.  Crouch  then  called  Mrs.  M.  A.  Huggins  to  the  front  of  the 
platform,  thanked  her  for  the  faithful  and  diligent  assistance  given 
by  her  to  Dr.  Huggins  in  preparing  the  "History,"  and  presented 
her  with  an  orchid. 

111.  Crouch  then  expressed  to  Dr.  Huggins  the  great  debt  of  the 
Convention  to  him  in  the  preparation  of  the  "History"  and  pre- 
sented him  a  plaque  indicating  appreciation  for  his  services  to  the 
Convention  through  the  years  since  1932. 

112.  Huggins  responded  with  keen  appreciation  of  the  recogni- 
tion and  expressed  the  joy  he  experienced  in  writing  the  "History," 
and  the  wish  that  publication  of  the  brochures  on  sixteen  institu- 
tions and  agencies  of  the  Convention,  almost  ready  for  the  printer, 
might  later  be  published. 

113.  John  Lawrence  presented  the  following  resolution  and  moved 
the  suspension  of  the  rules: 

Whereas,  Dr.  M.  A.  Huggins  served  North  Carolina  Baptists  faith- 
fully and  well  for  thirty-two  years  —  five  as  Educational  Secretary 
and  twenty-seven  as  General  Secretary-Treasurer; 

And  Whereas,  upon  his  retirement  in  1959  he  was  requested 
by  the  Convention  to  prepare  a  history  of  North  Carolina  Baptists; 

And  Whereas,  for  eight  years,  supported  and  encouraged  by  his 
beloved  companion,  Mrs.  Huggins,  he  has  diligently  worked  at  this 
task  —  a  task  which  demanded  that  many  hours  be  spent  in  travel, 
research,  interviews  and  writing; 

And  Whereas,  this  record,  which  covers  approximately  two  hun- 
dred years  of  Baptist  history  from  its  beginning  until  1932,  the  year 
Dr.  Huggins  began  his  work  as  General  Secretary-Treasurer,  is  now 
completed  and  is  being  presented  to  the  North  Carolina  Baptist  State 
Convention  in  its  1967  Annual  Session. 

Now  THEREFORE  BE  IT  RESOLVED  that  the  messengers  to  the  Baptist 


182 


Baptist  State  Convention 


State  Convention  assembled  in  Asheville,  November  13-15,  ac- 
knowledge with  deep  appreciation  and  gratitude  the  dedicated  and 
loyal  service  performed  by  Dr.  Huggins  in  completing  and  in  pre- 
senting to  the  Convention  the  monumental  work  he  was  com- 
missioned to  do. 

Be  it  further  resolved  that  this  Resolution  be  presented  to  Dr. 
Huggins  and  a  copy  thereof  spread  upon  the  minutes  of  the  Annual 
Proceedings  of  this  Convention. 

Be  it  further  resolved  that  the  first  copy  of  his  book  to  come 
from  the  press  be  presented  to  Dr.  Huggins  as  a  token  of  the 
gratitude  of  the  Baptists  of  North  Carolina  for  the  tremendous  dedi- 
cation and  excellent  workmanship  which  he  has  manifested  in  ful- 
filling his  responsibility  to  produce  a  documented  and  thoroughly 
readable  history  of  Baptist  progress  in  this  state. 

It  was  adopted  unanimously. 

114.  Crouch  then  called  attention  to  the  ownership  by  the  Con- 
vention of  the  George  W.  Truett  homeplace  at  Hayesville,  that  the 
General  Board  had  asked  the  Woman's  Missionary  Union  of  the 
First  Church  of  Asheville  to  aid  in  furnishing  the  building.  This 
request  had  been  gladly  accepted,  and  soon  it  was  thought  the 
house  would  be  appropriately  furnished. 

115.  L.  J.  Morriss,  chairman  of  the  Department  of  Social  Services, 
reported  on  the  television  service  given  freely  by  the  stations  and 
the  desire  to  thank  them.  He  made  the  following  presentation: 

Through  the  Radio  and  Television  Commission  and  the  Depart- 
ment of  Program  Services  of  the  Convention,  our  churches  have 
been  encouraged  to  make  constant  use  of  television  and  radio  in 
the  proclamation  of  the  Gospel.  To  complement  the  mass  media 
program  of  the  local  churches  and  the  association,  the  Baptist  State 
Convention  has  produced  the  television  series  "A  Light  Unto  My 
Path"  —  a  series  of  programs  designed  to  proclaim  Jesus  as  the 
Son  of  God  and  Saviour  of  the  world  and  the  Bible  as  God's  holy 
Word.  This  series  is  produced  in  sign  language  for  the  deaf  and 
carried  by  five  television  stations  in  North  Carolina  on  a  sustaining 
basis.  We  are  also  happy  to  report  that  the  program  in  a  coopera- 
tive venture  with  other  Conventions  is  at  present  being  carried  by 
18  stations  from  Canada  to  Mexico. 

We  are  deeply  indebted  and  grateful  to  the  North  Carolina  sta- 
tions for  programming  "A  Light  Unto  My  Path"  on  a  weekly  basis 
for  a  total  of  seven  years  of  services  to  the  Baptists  of  North 
Carolina.  It  is  estimated  that  each  of  these  five  stations  has  con- 
tributed by  means  of  time  given  for  the  telecast  each  week  for 
the  seven-year  period  approximately  $50,000  to  $100,000  based 
upon  the  average  rate  card  per  station.  Over  and  above  this  amount, 
WRAL-TV  has  given  not  only  the  time,  but  all  facilities  and  produc- 
tion crew  for  the  production  of  this  series  without  cost  to  Baptists. 

Therefore,  today  the  Baptist  State  Convention  of  North  Carolina 
seeks  in  some  small  way  to  say  "thank  you"  to  these  stations

through  the  presentation  of  an  appropriate  plaque  the  gratitude  of 
North  Carolina  Baptists  for  their  contributions  to  the  spiritual  life 
of  the  people  of  our  state. 

As  we  call  these  stations,  will  their  representatives  please  come 
to  the  platform. 

WiLOS-TV,  Asheville  —  Mr.  Arthur  Whiteside,  Public  Affairs 

WBTV,  Charlotte  —  Mr.  Dave  Steele,  Prod.  Mgr. 

WRAL-TV,  Raleigh — Mr.  David  Witherspoon,  Promotion  Mgr. 

WFMY-TV,  Greensboro  —  Rev.  Monte  Bishop  (standing  in  for 
Mr.  Jack  Markham,  Program  Dir.) 

WNCT-TV,  Greenville  —  Rev.  Irby  Jackson  (standing  in  for  Mr. 
Hank  Tribley,  Mgr.) 

Gentlemen,  in  behalf  of  North  Carolina  Baptists,  may  we  say 
thank  you  for  your  past  and  continuing  services  in  meeting  the 
needs  of  minority  groups  through  the  telecasting  of  the  series  "A 
Light  Unto  My  Path." 

David  Witherspoon,  WRAL,  responding,  as  each  received  a  cer- 
tificate of  appreciation  from  the  hand  of  General  Secretary  Crouch, 
called  attention  to  the  program,  "A  Light  Unto  My  Path,"  and 
paid  tribute  to  the  vision  and  dedication  of  L.  J.  Morriss. 

116.  Mrs.  Thurman  Allred,  expressed  appreciation  for  the  par- 
ticipation by  the  Baptist  State  Convention  in  the  work  of  the 
American  Bible  Society. 

117.  George  Tunstall,  83  today,  was  recognized  by  the  President, 
and  note  taken  that  he  had  been  in  attendance  upon  meetings  of 
the  Convention  for  forty-three  years.  Jim  Gibson,  Jr.,  Asheboro, 
was  recognized  as  Page  serving  the  body. 

118.  W.  C.  Reed,  Kinston,  chairman  Committee  on  Memorials, 
read  the  report  as  printed  in  the  Book  of  Reports  (cf.  p.  151),  and 
asked  the  congregation  to  stand  as  he  read  the  list  of  the  deceased 
ministers.  C.  B.  Trammell,  Elkin,  then  led  in  prayer.  H.  B.  Ander- 
son, Durham,  moved  that  the  pictures  of  J.  R.  Cantrell,  Kings  Moun- 
tain Association,  and  Zeno  Wall,  Kings  Mountain  Association,  be 
placed  in  the  Annual,  and  that  the  volume  be  dedicated  to  these 
faithful  ministers.  Carried.  (The  Committee  on  Memorials  later 
authorized  the  addition  of  the  names  of  Dr.  I.  G.  Greer  and  Mrs. 
W.  Perry  Crouch  for  the  dedicatory  pages.  ENG) 

119.  The  Biblical  Recorder  was  presented  by  Marse  Grant,  editor, 
who  spoke  on  the  service  of  the  printed  word  and  the  value  of 
religious  publications. 

120.  The  congregation  then  joined  in  the  singing  of  "Stand  Up, 
Stand  Up  for  Jesus." 

121.  The  choir  of  Wake  Forest  University,  under  the  direction  of 
Thane  McDonald,  with  Miss  Nelda  Morgan  accompanying  at  the 
organ,  sang:  "The  Lord  Is  My  Shepherd"  (Rose  S.  Kapp),  "Psalm 
XIII"  (Setting  by  Leora  Dretke),  and  "My  Eternal  King"  (Jane 
Marshall).

122.  When  the  order  for  the  Seminaries  came,  John  Durham, 
Southeastern,  was  recognized  and  emphasized  "quality  theological 
education."  Stanley  Hardee,  of  the  New  Orleans  Seminary,  reported 
an  enrollment  in  that  school  of  717,  and  that  the  endeavor  of  the 
school  was  to  give  "a  message  from  God." 

123.  J.  Winston  Pearce,  Golden  Gate  Seminary,  then  spoke  for  all 
six  seminaries  of  Southern  Baptists.  He  called  attention  to  their 
task  in  trying  to  prepare  students  for  fulltime  Christian  vocation 
and  to  help  students  understand  present  conditions  in  the  context  of 
Christian  commitment.  Fields  of  work  are  research,  teaching,  and 
application.  In  our  seminaries,  motive,  that  of  love,  is  all  important. 
Holiness  and  brains  are  both  needed.  Pearce  expressed  concern 
over  the  number  of  men  leaving  the  pastoral  ministry  for  other 
professions.  He  bespoke  the  need  of  participation  in  social  and 
political  action  that  dealt  with  moral  issues,  the  need  to  bring 
theological  studies  from  academic  circles  into  the  life  of  the  day, 
and  the  need  of  greater  communication  between  seminaries  and  local 
churches. 

124.  The  benediction  was  pronounced  by  A.  Alden  Angline,  Ashe- 
ville. 

WEDNESDAY  AFTERNOON— NOVEMBER  15,  1967 

125.  After  the  organ  meditation  by  Willis  Abernathy,  President 
Bates  called  on  Joseph  Stroud  to  direct  the  music  for  the  worship 
period.  The  choir  sang  "O  Gracious  Lord,  Accept"  (Young)  as  a 
choral  call  to  worship.  During  the  period  the  congregation  sang 
"Stand  Up  for  Jesus"  and  "God  of  Grace,  God  of  Glory." 

126.  Clarence  Cranford,  in  his  fifth  and  final  devotional  message, 
deduced  several  observations  from  Jesus'  word  to  Peter,  "Launch 
out  into  the  deep."  These  applied  to  the  mission  of  the  church. 
(1)  Simon  could  not  have  launched  out  into  the  deep  without  a 
net.  We  have  the  church.  (2)  He  would  not  have  had  the  same 
results  if  Christ  had  not  been  in  the  boat  with  him.  (3)  Even 
with  Christ  in  the  boat,  he  could  not  have  caught  a  fish  without  a 
net.  We  have  church  programs.  (4)  He  would  not  have  caught  a 
fish,  if  he  had  not  thrown  the  net  into  the  sea.  (5)  Peter  could 
not  bring  in  the  fish  by  himself;  he  had  to  call  on  others  to  help 
bring  them  in.

130.  J.  Boyce  Brooks,  Boone,  who  had  asked  permission  yesterday

to  make  the  following  report  for  the  Committee  on  Place  and 
Preacher : 

The  Committee  on  Place  and  Preacher  wishes  to  express  its  ap- 
preciation to  Chambers  of  Commerce,  mayors  and  Baptist  people 
of  the  cities  of  Fayetteville  and  Wilmington  for  their  invitations 
to  this  Convention  to  meet  with  them  in  1969.  In  light  of  the  fact 
that  the  Convention  has  not  met  in  Fayetteville  for  many,  many 
years,  we  recommend  that  we  hold  our  1969  Convention  in  that  city. 

After  careful  and  prayerful  consideration  we  recommend  that 
Dr.  Randall  Lolley  deliver  the  Convention  sermon  in  1968  and  that 
Dr.  John  Lewis  serve  as  alternate.

J.  BoYCE  Brooks,  Chairman 

This  was  adopted. 

131.  Budd  E.  Smith,  Wingate  College,  called  attention  to  the 
report  of  the  Committee  on  Orientation  of  Trustees,  as  printed  in 
the  Book  of  Reports. 

132.  L.  Eugene  Walter,  Wingate,  made  the  following  motion:  that 
the  N.  C.  Baptist  State  Convention  demonstrate  its  faith  and  confi- 
dence in  the  Boards  of  Trustees  of  our  colleges  by  placing  into 
their  hands  the  responsibility  of  all  matters  dealing  with  recrea- 
tional and  social  activities  of  campus  life. 

133.  M.  O.  Owens,  Jr.,  Gastonia,  called  attention  to  the  constitu- 
tion that  limited  the  action  of  trustees  in  the  operation  of  institu- 
tions only  in  line  with  Baptist  principles. 

Woodrow  Robbins,  High  Point,  moved  to  table  the  motion.  Carried. 

134.  H.  L.  Ferguson,  Charlotte,  moved  to  rescind  the  action  of 
yesterday  relative  to  the  request  of  Mars  Hill  College  in  the  Title 
III  program  for  faculty  development  as  presented  in  the  Higher 
Education  Act  of  1965. 

135.  After  it  had  been  seconded.  President  Bates  ruled  the  motion 
to  rescind  out  of  order  in  accordance  with  Roberts  Rules  of  Order, 
p.  169,  Division  37,  which  declares  that  a  vote  cannot  be  rescinded 


OF  North  Carolina 


189 


after  something  has  been  done  as  a  result  of  a  previous  vote  of 
the  body.  Inasmuch  as  the  contract  between  the  college  and  the 
University  of  Georgia  had  been  signed  last  night,  this  motion  to 
rescind  would  not  be  in  order. 

136.  Paul  Justice,  Asheville,  moved  that  the  convention  rule  on 
the  constitutionality  of  the  question  involved. 

137.  Julius  Corpening,  Durham,  questioned  the  ruling  on  the 
constitutionality  being  in  order  inasmuch  as  the  president  had  al- 
lowed the  vote  to  be  taken  on  the  question  yesterday. 

138.  William  A.  Wallace,  Charlotte,  asked  if  this  proposal  should 
not  have  been  printed  in  the  Biblical  Recorder  before  being  pre- 
sented to  the  convention.  The  president  declared  it  was  not  necessary. 

139.  Ferguson  quoted  the  constitution  of  the  convention  (Art.  XI. 
D)  and  expressed  the  opinion  that  this  action  was  "indirectly  fed- 
eral aid." 

140.  Fred  B.  Bentley,  President  Mars  Hill  College,  was  recognized 
for  an  explanation.  He  called  attention  to  the  need  of  Mars  Hill 
for  faculty  accreditation,  and  that  the  Association  of  Schools  and 
Colleges  in  Atlanta,  in  insisting  on  greater  faculty  preparation, 
had  agreed  to  this  program  of  interchange  of  teachers.  This  Title 
III  is  similar  to  grants  to  students  of  colleges,  which  are  readily 
acecpted,  but  is  on  a  faculty  level  of  study,  the  college  simply 
becoming  the  channeling  agency  for  the  faculty  member. 

141.  Ferguson  declared  that,  if  this  were  ruled  constitutional,  it 
would  open  the  doors  for  many  similar  requests  that  might  be 
contrary  to  the  interpretation  of  the  constitution  as  given  by  the 
messengers. 

142.  Nane  Starnes  indicated  that  seeming  haste  prevented  the 
gathering  of  pressure  groups,  that  an  action  of  this  nature  ought  to 
be  decided  by  regularly  elected  messengers.  The  decision  hinges 
on  "services  rendered."  The  action  to  si,gn  the  contract  was  con- 
sidered in  keeping  with  this  requirement. 

143.  Motion  to  extend  time  ten  minutes  was  carried, 

144.  W.  Robert  Holt,  California  Creek  Church,  French  Broad 
Association,  felt  the  ruling  on  the  constitutionality  of  this  matter 
did  not  reflect  on  the  integrity  of  anyone  and  upheld  the  action 
of  the  college  trustees. 

145.  Maynard  Mangum,  Elizabeth  City,  expressed  the  belief  that 
the  institution  was  not  receiving  financial  aid,  but  individuals  to 
whom  this  was  granted  were  the  recipients,  and  he  supported  the 
action  of  the  trustees  and  of  the  convention. 

146.  On  the  insistence  of  Ferguson,  the  president  asked  for  the 
Convention  to  rule  on  the  constitutionality  of  its  action  yesterday 
in  approving  the  request  of  the  trustees  of  Mars  Hill  College. 

147.  Joseph  T.  McClain,  Shelby,  strongly  expressed  the  opinion 
that  the  "except  for  definite  and  full  services  rendered"  phrase  of 


190 


Baptist  State  Convention 


the  constitution  must  bring  us  back  to  the  matter  of  trust  with  ref- 
erence to  our  colleges  and  obliterate  the  persistent  disease  of  mis- 
trust. 

148.  Corpening  asked  if  there  was  a  motion  on  the  floor.  The 
president  stated  that  there  was  not  and  could  not  be  made  until 
the  body  had  ruled  on  his  request  concerning  the  constitutionality 
of  the  action  taken  yesterday. 

149.  Warren  Carr,  Winston-Salem,  insisted  there  was  a  motion  on 
the  floor.  To  it  the  president  replied  that  no  motion  was  on  the 
floor  until  the  president  had  stated  it,  as  the  parliamentarian  had 
interpreted  it. 

150.  Lemuel  Hall,  Asheville,  president  of  the  local  POAU,  gave 
as  his  opinion  that  we  should  remain  free  from  federal  entangle- 
ments, especially  "indirectly." 

151.  E.  J.  Prevatte  rose  to  make  two  observations.  Having  made 
a  study  of  the  constitutionality  of  this  proposal,  he  declared  that 
he  found  nowhere  a  requirement  that  a  teacher  benefiting  from 
this  study  was  required  to  return  to  Mars  Hill.  Then  he  made  a 
personal  reference  to  his  having  to  help  defray  expenses  of  a  mem- 
ber of  his  family  who  was  graduated  from  Mars  Hill  in  order  to 
qualify  for  graduate  work  at  a  university  in  another  state,  be- 
cause Mars  Hill  is  not  standard. 

152.  President  Bates  then  asked  the  body  to  rule  on  the  con- 
stitutionality of  the  action  concerning  the  Mars  Hill  proposal.  The 
standing  vote  revealed  a  consensus  that  the  action  taken  by  the 
convention  yesterday  was  constitutional. 

153.  Henry  Morgan,  chairman  Committee  on  Resolutions,  noted 
that  the  resolution  concerning  the  appointment  of  the  Committee 
of  20  was  approved  yesterday. 

D.  J.  Abernathy,  Charlotte,  indicated  the  approval  of  the  Reso- 
lutions Committee  to  consider  the  establishment  of  a  Division  of 
Christian  Ethics. 

Whereas,  the  Christian  Action  Committee  Committee  Report  to 
this  Convention  recommends  the  setting  up  of  a  special  committee, 
your  Resolutions  Committee,  after  due  consideration,  joins  the 
Christian  Action  Committee  in  this  recommendation:  That  a  special 
committee  be  set  up  by  the  Convention: 

To  study  the  feasibility  and  advisability  of  creating  "Division  of 
Christian  Ethics,"  with  a  committee  of  the  General  Board,  Secre- 
tary, and  such  staff  as  deemed  necessary,  whose  function  would  en- 
compass the  areas  of  responsibility  of  the  existing  convention  Com- 
mittees —  Christian  Action,  Christian  Life  and  Public  Affairs,  as 
defined  in  our  by-laws. 

To  review  the  relationship  of  the  above  mentioned  committees 
to  other  organizations  outside  our  convention,  as  mentioned  in  the 
by-laws. 

Such  special  Committee  to  consist  of  seven  board  members  as 


OF  North  Carolina 


191 


follows:  the  President  of  the  General  Board,  as  chairman,  three 
members  elected  by  the  General  Board  at  its  January  meeting,  and 
the  respective  chairmen  of  the  committees  affected  by  this  recom- 
mendation. 

This  was  approved  by  the  convention. 

J.  Parker  McLendon,  Elkin,  presented  a  resolution  from  the 
committee  that  combined  the  features  of  the  three  resolutions  intro- 
duced on  alcoholic  beverages,  as  follows: 

Whereas  our  convention  is  again  being  asked  to  consider  the 
problem  of  alcoholic  beverages,  and 

Whereas  there  is  a  definite  trend  toward  the  liberalization  of  the 
laws  regulating  the  sale  and  use  of  alcoholic  beverages,  as  evi- 
denced during  the  sessions  of  the  1967  North  Carolina  General  As- 
sembly, and 

Whereas  the  taxpayers  of  our  nation  have  recently  spent  1.1 
million  dollars  of  federal  funds  for  a  Cooperative  Commission  Re- 
port which  strongly  favors  the  beverage  alcohol  industry,  and 
which,  if  taken  seriously,  will  increase  and  intensify  every  problem 
relating  to  drinking  beverage  alcohol,  including  such  proposals 
as  lowering  the  legal  drinking  age  to  eighteen  .  .  .  increasing  the 
number  of  licenses  where  children  are  served  .  .  .  making  alcoholic 
beverages  available  at  young  people's  church  functions  .  .  .  and 
serving  alcoholic  beverages  to  young  people  at  recreational  and 
athletic  events,  and 

Whereas  North  Carolina  is  being  invaded  by  two  proposed  beer 
breweries  which  will  use  up  valuable  water  and  land  resources 
for  a  non-essential  industry  as  well  as  further  condition  our  people 
to  accept  and  to  depend  upon  their  products. 

Be  it  therefore  resolved 

1.  That  this  convention  reaffirm  its  opposition  to  the  sale  and  use 
of  alcoholic  beverages,  and 

2.  That  the  convention  endorse  U.  S.  Senate  Bill  No.  2500  re- 
quiring the  precautionary  labeling  of  alcoholic  beverages  and  U.  S. 
Senate  Bill  No.  2202  restricting  the  radio  and  television  advertising 
of  alcoholic  beverages,  and 

3.  That  the  convention  urge  the  voters  of  North  Carolina  to  as- 
certain the  views  of  candidates  and  prospective  candidates  for  seats 
in  the  1969  General  Assembly  regarding  beverage  alcohol,  and 

4.  That  the  convention  express  its  opposition  to  the  opening  of 
our  state  and  its  resources  to  the  manufacture  of  alcoholic  beverages, 
and 

5.  That  we  ask  the  President  of  our  Convention,  the  President  of 
the  General  Board,  the  General  Secretary-Treasurer  of  the  Con- 
vention, the  Chairman  of  the  Christian  Life  Committee,  the  Chair- 
man of  the  Christian  Action  Committee  and  the  Editor  of  the 


192 


Baptist  State  Convention 


Biblical  Recorder  to  invite  the  officers  of  the  Christian  Action 
League  and  strong  representatives  of  other  denominations  to  join 
them  in  initiating  plans  to  oppose  all  legislation  further  liberaliz- 
ing the  liquor  laws  and  to  propose  legislation  for  more  effective 
and  realistic  control  of  alcoholic  beverages.  This  committee  shall 
report  to  the  Executive  Committee  of  the  General  Board  and  to 
the  General  Board,  and  it  shall  inform  the  general  public  through 
the  Biblical  Recorder,  Charity  and  Children  and  other  news  media. 
If  funds  are  necessary  for  its  work,  the  committee  shall  make  a 
request  for  the  same  to  the  Executive  Committee  of  the  General 
Board. 

This  was  adopted. 

154.  Clarence  Godwin,  Oxford,  offered  a  substitute  for  the  resolu- 
tion on  Vietnam,  as  offered  by  Burckhalter.  Burckhalter  moved 
to  include  the  phrase,  "continue  to  seek  God's  leadership,"  as  an 
amendment  to  the  substitute. 

John  Singletary,  Gatesville,  asked  if  anything  was  implied  that 
we  were  seeking  to  give  suggestions  concerning  military  tactics. 
The  reply  was  that  there  was  nothing  implied  of  this  nature. 

Curtis  Matthews,  Fayetteville,  wished  to  include  statement  of 
support  of  men  in  service. 

The  question  was  put  on  the  resolution  as  amended  and  adopted. 

Resolution  on  Vietnam 

Whereas,  there  is  great  concern  among  the  messengers  of  this 
Convention  for  all  people  affected  by  the  war  in  Vietnam,  and 

Whereas,  it  is  beyond  our  ability  to  offer  specific  proposals  about 
government  policies,  military  strategy,  or  diplomatic  approaches  to 
negotiate  our  present  political  and  international  crisis; 

Therefore,  be  it  resolved:  | 

1.  That  we  reaffirm  the  statement  of  the  Christian  Life  Com- 
mittee, which  reads  in  part:  "We  would  encourage  the  responsible 
leadership  of  our  government  to  continue  to  pursue  patiently  every 
course  that  might  lead  to  a  peaceful  settlement  of  the  Vietnam 
conflict." 

2.  That  we  urge  our  churches  and  others  to  observe  Sunday,  j 
December  24,  1967,  as  a  special  day  of  prayer  for  peace  in  Vietnam,  j 

3.  That  a  copy  of  this  resolution  be  sent  to  the  President  of  the  | 
United  States,  assuring  him  that  we  join  him  and  our  nation  in  : 
prayer  at  the  Christmas  season  for  peace  in  Vietnam,  and  that  we 
encourage  our  President  and  all  other  persons  in  places  of  respon- 
sibility to  continue  to  seek  God's  leadership  and  help  in  finding  a 
just  and  honorable  solution  to  the  problems  confronting  our  nation, 
(Letter  of  December  9,  1967,  from  White  House:  "President  John- 
son has  received  your  letter  enclosing  the  copy  of  the  resolution 
adopted  by  your  organization.  He  appreciates  your  courtesy  in 
bringing  this  expression  of  views  to  his  attention.  With  the  Presi-

dent's  gratitude  for  your  prayers  and  support,  and  with  his  best 
wishes,  Sincerly,  Whitney  Shoemaker,  Assistant  to  the  President." — 
ENG) 

155.  Mrs.  Hoyle  Allred,  Gastonia,  presented  the  following  reso- 
lutions of  appreciation,  which  were  adopted: 

Your  Committee  on  Resolutions  recommends  that  the  Convention 
express  its  deep  appreciation  to  the  following: 

1.  To  the  pastors  and  churches  of  the  Buncombe  Association  for 
their  hospitality  to  all  convention  messengers. 

2.  To  the  staff  and  management  of  the  Asheville  City  Auditorium 
and  to  the  Asheville  Fire  Department  for  their  assistance  during 
the  Convention. 

3.  To  the  Convention  Arrangements  Committee,  and  especially  to 
its  Chairman,  Dr.  Cecil  Sherman,  for  a  well-conceived  and  helpful 
program. 

4.  To  President  Carl  Bates  and  other  Convention  officers  for 
their  fair  and  considerate  handling  of  the  Convention. 

5.  To  the  newspapers,  radio,  and  television  stations  for  their 
excellent  coverage  of  the  Convention. 

6.  To  all  special  guests,  the  Convention  Choir,  all  special  choirs 
and  musical  groups  for  their  contributions  to  the  program. 

7.  To  Dr.  W.  Perry  Crouch,  our  beloved  General  Secretary,  who 
has  labored  under  very  trying  circumstances  due  to  the  serious 
illness  of  Mrs.  Crouch. 

156.  The  benediction  for  this  session  was  pronounced  by  Edison 
Hill,  Asheville. 

WEDNESDAY  EVENING— NOVEMBER  15,  1967 

157.  J.  Boyce  Brooks,  First  Vice-President,  recognized  Joseph 
Stroud,  who  led  the  Convention  in  the  singing  of  "Amazing  Grace." 

158.  Elbert  N.  Johnson,  Wagram,  was  recognized  as  having  at- 
tended conventions  for  fifty-six  consecutive  sessions,  and  was  asked 
to  lead  in  prayer. 

159.  The  Recording  Secretary  recognized  Miss  Ruth  Williams, 
secretary  in  the  office  of  General  Secretary  W.  Perry  Crouch,  and 
Mrs.  Doris  Salter,  secretary  in  the  office  of  Administrative  As- 
sistant Robert  H.  Bruhn.  These  have  assisted  in  the  recording  of 
the  proceedings. 

160.  E.  W.  Price,  Jr.,  High  Point,  state  chairman  for  the  "Cru- 
sade of  the  Americas,"  was  presented  and  spoke  of  the  challenge 
to  all  our  people  and  agencies  in  this  great  undertaking. 

161.  Bruce  Heilman,  President  Meredith  College,  pledged  the  co- 
operation of  the  institutions  in  speaking  to  the  topic,  "Our  Institu- 
tions Back  the  Crusade."  This  included  not  only  faculties  and  stu- 
dents of  the  schools,  but  other  institutions  of  the  convention.

162.  C.  Robert  Shields,  Rocky  Mount,  president  of  the  State 
Brotherhood,  spoke  on  "The  Layman's  Part  in  the  Crusade,"  pledg- 
ing the  support  of  the  men  of  our  churches. 

163.  Mrs.  A.  Leroy  Parker,  Greensboro,  past  president  of  the 
Woman's  Missionary  Union  of  North  Carolina,  in  speaking  on  "Our 
Women  Are  Encouraging  the  Crusade,"  referred  to  the  Crusade  as 
a  PACT  ("Pray  for  the  Americas  Crusade  Together").  She  called 
attention  to  a  plan  for  prayer  partners  with  those  of  other  lands 
and  stated  that  the  Woman's  Missionary  Union  might  be  a  clearing 
house,  for  selecting  these. 

164.  Julian  S.  Hopkins,  secretary  of  the  Division  of  Evangelism, 
addressed  himself  to  "The  Challenge  of  Revival."  He  declared  that 
he  was  not  filled  with  pessimism  but  believed  we  were  on  the  edge 
of  a  spiritual  revival. 

165.  Price  called  attention  to  the  "Guidebook"  given  messengers 
at  the  time  of  their  registration  and  moved  that  the  Baptist  State 
Convention  now  record  its  determination  to  participate  in  the  "Cru- 
sade of  the  Americas,"  and  further,  that  we,  under  the  leadership 
of  the  Holy  Spirit,  use  the  "Guidebook"  prepared  by  the  Committee 
of  27  as  a  basis  for  our  work.  Carried  unanimously  by  a  standing 
vote. 

166.  Wayne  Dehoney,  pastor  Walnut  Street  Baptist  Church,  Louis- 
ville, Kentucky,  past  president  of  the  Southern  Baptist  Convention, 
and  coordinator  of  the  Crusade,  addressed  the  body  on  "The  Crusade 
of  the  Americas."  Dehoney  said  this  was  the  greatest  evangelistic 
effort  ever  undertaken  in  the  history  of  evangelical  Christianity 
and  involved  20,000,000  Baptists.  He  pointed  out  the  historical  be- 
ginning in  Brazil,  where  in  two  years  250,000  Baptists  were  able 
to  account  for  100,000  professions  of  faith,  and  to  the  organization 
for  the  Crusade  in  Cali,  Colombia.  This  involves  Baptists  in  27 
countries,  representing  38  groups.  Among  Southern  Baptists  the 
second  Sundays  in  January,  1968  and  1969,  have  been  set  aside  as 
days  of  prayer  for  the  Crusade.  The  speaker  called  attention  to 
some  personal  observations  and  convictions:  (1)  A  revival  of  com- 
passion for  people  that  need  a  Saviour  is  being  felt,  with  the 
conviction  that  Christ  is  the  only  hope;  (2)  A  revival  of  spiritual 
optimism  and  enthusiasm  is  being  seen;  and  (3)  A  revival  of 
personal  dedication  and  sacrifice  is  being  witnessed. 

167.  The  congregation  sang  "To  God  Be  the  Glory." 

168.  Then  the  combined  choirs  of  the  Buncombe  Association, 
under  the  direction  of  Allan  Guy,  sang  two  numbers:  "Send  Out 
Thy  Light"  (Schuetky)  and  "Beautiful  Saviour"  (arr.  Christian- 
sen). 

169.  President  Bates  back  in  the  chair,  expressed  appreciation 
to  Cecil  Sherman,  pastor  Asheville  First  Church,  who  had  served 
as  chairman  of  the  Committee  on  Arrangements.  Then  Sherman 
introduced  Harold  Stassen,  former  governor  of  Minnesota,  former 
president  of  the  American  Baptist  Convention,  recently  declared 


OF  North  Carolina 


195 


"Peace"  candidate  for  the  Republican  presidential  nomination,  who 
addressed  the  convention  on  the  topic,  "A  Christian  Faces  the 
World."  Referring  to  scientific  advance,  great  production,  and  in- 
stant communication  of  this  age,  Stassen  reminded  the  audience 
that,  as  great  concepts  that  related  to  the  founding  of  this  nation 
came  from  the  teachings  of  great  religious  leaders,  the  relevance 
of  Christian  principles  was  just  as  important  now.  "There  never 
was  a  time,"  said  he,  "when  the  teachings  of  Jesus  Christ  have 
greater  relevance  than  today."  The  speaker  then  pointed  out  some 
basic  principles  that  he  holds  the  teachings  of  our  faith  require: 
(1)  There  should  be  a  major  moral  restraint  upon  the  use  of  military 
force.  If  we  work  intelligently  and  affirmatively  for  peace,  we 
should  move  away  from  exclusiveness.  Correction  must  not  come 
about  through  violence,  he  said,  citing  the  rebuilding  of  wartorn 
Europe  as  an  example.  The  first  objective  of  a  nation  seeking  to 
follow  these  Christian  principles  will  be  to  seek  the  welfare  of 
all.  The  speaker  sounded  a  note  of  optimism  in  his  belief  that 
we  can  end  the  war  in  Vietnam  and  bring  Red  China  into  ne- 
gotiations with  the  world.  (2)  Economic  assistance  must  be  ex- 
tended those  in  need.  (3)  There  is  an  imperative  moral  obligation 
for  everyone  to  perform  some  personal  act  of  helpfulness  for  others. 

170.  President  Bates  presented  the  incoming  president,  Claud 
Bowen,  and  members  of  his  family.  In  suitable  words  Bowen  accepted 
the  position  to  which  he  had  been  elected.  The  other  officers  were 
recognized. 

171.  The  benediction  was  pronounced  by  Allen  H.  Patterson, 
Asheville,  and  the  convention  adjourned  sine  die.

Statistical  Reports 
Associational  and  Convention 


Prepared  by  The  Department  of  Statistics  and  Survey 
Ted  W.  Williams,  Secretary 
Mrs.  Lafata  Lusk,  Office  Secretary 

The  following  information  was  supplied  by  the  clerks  of  the  eighty 
(80)  Baptist  Associations  in  North  Carolina.  We  greatly  appreciate 
the  faithful  service  they  have  rendered  in  compiling  the  statistical 
data.  These  reports  are  based  on  the  associational  year,  and  the  fi- 
nancial figures  are  not  the  same  as  those  based  on  the  calendar  year 
reported  by  our  Convention  business  office. 

Items  marked  ( * )  give  latest  data  available. 

Items  marked  (**)  give  total  expenditures. 

Churches  not  reporting:  Indicated  by  (1),  (2),  or  (3) 

(1)  First  year  not  reporting — previous  year's  report  will  be  car- 
ried, except  for  baptisms,  additions  by  letter,  number  of  missions 
operated  by  church,  and  Vacation  Bible  School  enrollment. 

(2)  Second  consecutive  year  not  reporting — latest  total  member- 
ship only  will  be  carried. 

(3)  Third  consecutive  (and  subsequent)  year  not  reporting — no 
figures  carried,  but  will  be  counted  as  a  church.  (A  church  will  be 
counted  until  verification  is  received  from  the  association  that  a 
subject  church  has  been  disaffiliated  from  said  association.) 

Location  (Item  2) 

(Number  which  most  nearly  describes  church  location)

Auditor^s  Statement 

Executive  Committee  of  the 
General  Board  of  the 

Baptist  State  Convention  of  North  Carolina 
Raleigh,  North  Carolina 


Gentlemen : 

We  have  examined  the  balance  sheet  of  the  Baptist  State  Convention  of 
North  Carolina  as  of  December  31,  1967,  and  the  related  statements  of  income 
and  changes  in  fund  balances  for  the  year  then  ended.  Our  examination  was 
made  in  accordance  with  generally  accepted  auditing  standards,  and  accordingly 
included  such  tests  of  the  accounting  records  and  such  other  auditing  procedures 
as  we  considered  necessary  in  the  circumstances.  The  statements,  which  are 
a  part  of  this  report  show  the  condition  of  the  General,  Education  and  Social 
Service  Institutions  Funds  at  December  31,  1967,  and  the  results  of  the  income 
and  expenses  for  the  year  then  ended.  The  statements  of  the  North  Carolina 
Baptist  Assembly,  the  Fruitland  Baptist  Camp  and  the  Fruitland  Baptist  Bible  In- 
stitute cover  the  operations  for  the  period  of  twelve  months  ended  December 
31,  1967,  and,  in  addition,  give  a  reconciliation  of  cash.  The  funds  shown  as 
sent  direct  are  taken  from  reports  received  by  the  Convention  and  were  not 
otherwise  verified  by  us. 

All  recorded  cash  receipts  were  found  to  be  promptly  deposited  in  the  bank 
and  disbursements  were  supported  by  cancelled  checks,  invoices  or  other  evi- 
dence, with  expenses  properly  classified.  Our  examination  did  not  disclose 
any  evidence  of  irregularities  and  we  believe  the  funds  have  been  carefully 
and  honestly  handled  and  accounted  for. 

In  our  opinion,  the  accompanying  balance  sheet  and  statements  of  income 
and  expenses  and  fund  balances  present  fairly  the  financial  position  of  the 
Baptist  State  Convention  of  North  Carolina  at  December  31,  1967,  and  the 
results  of  its  operations  for  the  year  then  ended,  in  conformity  with  generally 
accepted  accounting  principles  applicable  to  such  organizations,  applied  on  a 
basis  consistent  with  that  of  the  preceding  year.

CRAVEN  CULLOM  BURRIS 


Craven  Cullom  Burris  was  born  on  March  6,  1891,  in  Stanly  County.  He 
was  the  son  of  James  Taylor  and  Frances  Allen  Burris.  At  the  time  of  his 
death,  on  January  24,  1969,  he  was  president  emeritus  of  Wingate  College  and 
Chairman  of  Union  County's  Board  of  Education. 

The  Wingate  School  gave  him  the  high  school  background  which  enabled 
him  to  graduate  magna  cum  laude  from  Wake  Forest  College  with  both  the 
B.A.  and  M.A,  degrees. 

He  was  called  to  a  teaching  post  at  Wingate  School  in  1920.  In  addition  to 
to  serving  as  academic  dean,  he  taught  English  and  Latin.  He  also  coached 
basketball  and  served  as  tennis  instructor. 

In  1936,  C.  C.  Burris  accepted  the  presidency  of  Wingate  College  near  the 
middle  of  the  great  Depression.  This  was  a  period  when  many  small  schools 
were  forced  to  close  their  doors,  but  C.  C.  Burris,  with  the  aid  of  devoted 
faculty  members,  staff  personnel,  and  trustees,  not  only  kept  Wingate  open,  but 
also  established  the  college  on  firm  foundations. 

Two  dates  in  his  tenure  as  president  marked  significant  milestones.  In  1947 
Wingate  College  was  admitted  into  the  family  of  North  Carolina's  Baptist  Col- 
leges and  would  share  in  the  Convention's  Cooperative  Program  distribution. 
In  1951  Wingate  became  accredited  by  the  Southern  Association  of  Colleges. 
With  these  two  goals  attained  the  future  of  the  College  had  a  firm  base  from 
which  to  project  future  growth.  In  1953,  the  Trustees  named  him  president 
emeritus,  and  he  continued  teaching  till  his  70th  birthday. 

While  the  educational  world  remembers  this  dedicated  teacher  and  adminis- 
trator, there  v/ill  be  many  who  will  reflect  upon  his  faithfulness  as  a  pastor. 
In  addition  to  his  duties  at  the  College  he  served  pastorates  in  Stanly  and 
Union  counties.  He  served  the  King's  Street  Church  in  Waxhaw  for  24  years 
and  the  Hopewell  Church  in  Union  County,  for  more  than  25  years. 

So  wedded  was  he  to  the  total  life  of  his  community  that  he  offered  himself 
at  the  polls  to  serve  on  Union  County's  Board  of  Education,  to  which  he  was 
elected,  and  for  many  years  served  as  its  chairman. 

C.  C.  Burris  was  married  to  Virginia  Currie  in  1921,  and  they  have  six  chil- 
dren: James  Currie  lives  in  Florida  and  has  three  children;  Mary  Ben  (Mrs. 
Harry  Hall)  lives  in  New  Jersey  and  has  two  children;  Allen  is  Dean  at  Mere- 
dith College,  Raleigh,  and  has  two  children;  William  is  Dean  at  Guilford  Col- 
lege, Greensboro,  and  has  two  children;  Frances  (Mrs.  Thomas  Crooke)  lives 
in  Wingate  and  has  two  children;  Robert  lives  in  Charlotte  and  has  one  child. 

This  man  walked  among  us  as  one  who  had  come  face  to  face  with  his  God 
in  Jesus  Christ.  He  lived  simply,  taught  profoundly,  and  loved  completely.  A 
family  man  always,  he  was  teacher-pastor-administrator  in  the  finest  Christian 
tradition.  We  say  of  such  men,  "a  man  in  Christ"  who  served  his  LrOrd  till  the 
day  of  his  death. 

Tennyson's  words  seem  to  belong  to  C.  C.  Burris  and  we  quote  them  here. 

"Sunset  and  evening  star 

And  one  clear  call  for  me! 
And  may  there  be  no  moaning  of  the  bar. 

When  I  put  out  to  sea. 

But  such  a  tide  as  moving  seems  asleep, 

Too  full  for  sound  and  foam. 
When  that  which  drew  from  out  the  boundless  deep 

Turns  again  home. 

Twilight  and  evening  bell, 

And  after  that  the  dark! 
And  may  there  be  no  sadness  of  farewell 

When  I  embark; 

For  tho'  from  out  our  bourne  of  Time  and  Place 

The  flood  may  bear  me  far, 
I  hope  to  see  my  Pilot  face  to  face 

When  I  have  crost  the  bar."

CRAVEN  CULLOM  BURRIS 


GILMER  HENRY  CROSS 


Gilmer  Cross  never  met  a  stranger.  His  ever  present  humor,  his  keen  insight, 
his  wisdom,  and  his  devotion  to  his  Lord,  made  it  impossible  for  any  who  met 
him  to  ever  forget  him.  To  many  younger  men  in  the  ministry,  he  became 
their  "father  confessor"  and  advisor.  He  was  never  too  busy  to  listen  or  lend  a 
helping  hand.  His  one  great  desire  was  that  by  his  life  he  would  be  able  to 
lead  others  into  a  closer  walk  with  his  Lord.  Details,  often  overlooked  or 
thought  to  be  unimportant  by  others,  were  the  "important  niceties"  of  his  per- 
sonal relationships.  No  person,  or  issue,  was  ever  thought  to  be  beyond  the 
scope  of  his  concern,  for  in  his  Father's  world,  all  was  important. 

Gilmer  Henry  Cross  was  born  in  Lexington,  North  Carolina,  on  May  10,  1911. 
Encircled  and  nurtured  by  a  Christian  home,  he  accepted  Christ  as  Saviour  and 
joined  the  First  Baptist  Church  there  when  he  was  nine  years  old.  He  was 
licensed  by  this  same  church  when  he  was  twenty  years  old,  and  was  ordained 
to  the  work  of  the  Gospel  Ministry  at  the  age  of  twenty-two.  It  is  significant 
that  each  of  these  formidable  events  occurred  within  the  framework  of  his 
home  congregation. 

Following  his  high  school  education  at  Lexington,  Mr.  Cross  received  his 
Bachelor  of  Arts  degree  from  Wake  Forest  College,  and  his  Master  of  The- 
ology degree  from  the  Southern  Baptist  Theological  Seminary  at  Louisville, 
Kentucky. 

Mr.  Cross'  pastorates  enabled  him  to  serve  the  people  of  two  states.  He  served 
the  First  Baptist  Church,  Scarbro,  West  Virginia  from  1936  to  1938;  Beck's 
Baptist  Church,  Winston-Salem,  North  Carolina  from  1938  to  1943;  the  Oak  Hill 
Baptist  Church,  Oak  Hill,  West  Virginia  from  1943  to  1950;  and  the  First  Baptist 
Church,  Goldsboro,  North  Carolina  from  January  1,  1951  until  his  untimely 
death  on  June  16,  1969, 

"Open  House"  was  the  order  of  the  day  at  the  Cross  home.  The  fellowship 
of  that  Christian  environment,  enjoyed  by  so  many,  was  enhanced  by  his  wife, 
Bernice,  and  their  daughter,  Elizabeth  Anne  (Mrs.  Charles  Helland  of  Lexing- 
ton, North  Carolina). 

His  ability  as  a  leader  was  soon  recognized  on  the  part  of  the  several  groups 
he  served.  While  in  West  Virginia  he  served  as  President,  West  Virginia  Minis- 
ters' Council;  Member,  Executive  Board,  West  Virginia  Baptist  Convention;  and 
as  President  of  the  West  Virginia  State  Baptist  Convention.  He  was  a  member 
of  the  Pastor's  Advisory  Committee  on  Publications  of  the  American  Baptist 
Convention,  and  a  member  of  the  Board  of  Managers,  Home  Mission  Board  of 
A.B.C. 

In  North  Carolina  he  served  as  Moderator  of  the  Neuse  Association;  Trustee 
of  Campbell  College  and  Wake  Forest  University;  Chairman,  Committee  on 
Orientation  of  Trustees;  member,  Baptist  State  Convention  Budget  Committee; 
Chairman  State  Missions  Committee  and  Fruitland  institute  Committee;  Mem- 
ber of  General  Board  and  its  President  for  two  terms. 

He  served  the  Southern  Baptist  Convention  as  a  member  of  its  Committee 
on  Boards  and  for  two  terms  was  a  member  of  the  Annuity  Board. 

In  1969  he  was  invited  by  the  Foreign  Mission  Board  of  the  Southern  Baptist 
Convention  and  the  Philippines  Baptist  Convention  to  be  a  member  of  the 
Evangelistic  Crusade  Team  which  had  a  most  vital  part  in  the  Nationwide 
Evangelistic  effort  of  that  year. 

"Both  as  a  friend  and  as  a  valuable  member  of  the  Baptist  family,  we  wiU 
miss  him  wherever  Baptists  get  together  .  .  ."  for  "his  outgoing  nature  and  his 
basic  enjoyment  of  life,"  made  Gilmer  a  permanent  part  of  all  of  our  lives.

CHARLES  BENNETT  DEANE 

In  listing  the  laymen  who  have  made  significant  contributions  to  the  advance- 
ment of  the  Kingdom  of  God  by  North  Carolina  Baptists,  the  name  of  Charles 
Bennett  Deane  will  be  among  the  first.  Although  most  of  the  active  years  of 
his  life  among  us  were  spent  in  the  pursuit  of  his  chosen  profession  in  legal 
and  related  fields,  he  was  always  ready  to  offer  himself  in  dedicated  service, 
from  his  local  church  to  the  highest  position  as  President  of  the  Baptist  State 
Convention,  1959-61.  For  this  high  office  he  had  the  preparation  of  twenty- 
seven  years  as  Recording  Secretary,  1932-59.  In  addition  to  these  twenty-nine 
years  of  Convention  leadership,  he  was  a  trustee  of  both  Wake  Forest  Col- 
lege and  Meredith  College,  serving  at  the  latter  at  the  time  of  his  death. 
In  1960  Wake  Forest  College  honored  its  distinguished  alumnus  with  the 
honorary  degree  of  Doctor  of  Humanities. 

In  the  affairs  of  the  Southern  Baptist  Convention  he  was  chairman  of  its 
Committee  on  Boards  in  1966,  and  from  its  organization  to  his  death  was  a 
member  of  the  Baptist  Joint  Committee  on  Public  Affairs  in  Washington,  D.  C. 

In  these  same  busy  years  of  work  in  his  denomination  at  all  levels,  he  found 
time  to  serve  as  Register  of  Deeds  for  eight  years  in  his  home  county  of  Rich- 
mond before  going  to  Washington  as  a  compiler  of  the  United  States  Congres- 
sional Directory.  He  also  served  as  an  attorney  for  the  United  States  Wage  and 
Hour  Division.  The  foregoing  experience  in  public  life  prepared  him  for  ten 
years  as  Congressman  from  the  Eighth  District,  1947-57.  It  was  in  this  ca- 
pacity that  C.  B.  Deane  demonstrated  some  of  the  finest  characteristics  of 
his  whole  life.  One  example  was  during  the  emotional  storm  that  swept  the 
South  after  the  Supreme  Court's  historic  school  desegregation  decision,  when 
a  so-called  Southern  Manifesto  was  framed  in  1956.  He  refused  to  sign  this 
and  he  was  narrowly  defeated  for  his  seat  in  Congress  in  1956 — a  seeming 
defeat  which  was  later  recognized  as  an  act  of  courage  and  dedication  to  true 
Christian  statesmanship.  The  last  thirteen  years  of  his  life  he  spent  in  his  be- 
loved community  of  Rockingham  where  he  successfully  engaged  in  the  practice 
of  law,  serving  as  City  Attorney  and  in  the  development  of  an  urban  renewal 
program  for  his  community. 

During  the  last  two  years  of  his  life  C.  B.  demonstrated  his  greatest  courage 
in  a  fight  against  a  malignancy  which  defied  medical  science  but  never  con- 
quered his  indomitable  spirit  and  Christian  faith  and  fortitude.  In  these  last 
months  he  wrote:  "I  claimed  to  have  a  faith  but  these  recent  months  have 
served  to  enormously  increase  this  faith.  In  many  ways,  these  recent  months 
have  been  the  most  challenging  and  victorious  days  we  have  ever  experienced. 
You  begin  to  live  your  faith  .  .  .  God  has  many  ways  of  healing.  He  uses  our 
weaknesses  all  along  the  way  to  demonstrate  His  strength  and  using  every  day 
of  life  He  gives  us  as  a  stream  of  blessing  and  healing  for  us,  for  our  families 
and  for  our  friends." 

No  account  of  the  life  of  C.  B.  Deane  would  be  complete  without  a  recogni- 
tion of  his  love  for  and  fidelity  to  his  family,  consisting  of  his  faithful  wife, 
Agnes  Cree,  two  daughters,  Mrs.  Richard  B.  (Cree)  Sherman  of  Orlando,  Florida, 
and  Mrs.  T.  John  F.  (Carol)  Becker  of  Rowayton,  Connecticut,  and  his  son, 
Charles  B.  Deane,  Jr.,  of  Rockingham. 

In  reciting  these  sketchy  glimpses  of  a  life  so  rich  and  full  it  seems  significant 
that  one  of  so  great  stature  could  rise  from  the  humble  beginnings  with  his 
birth  November  1,  1898,  in  Anson  County,  and  on  through  his  childhood  ex- 
periences in  a  textile  mill,  working  his  way  through  Trinity  Park  prep  school 
and  Wake  Forest  College,  graduating  from  the  law  school  there  in  1923. 

With  much  of  the  same  care  and  courage  which  characterized  his  living, 
C.  B.  planned  his  funeral  service  to  reflect  his  life — it  was  simple,  meaningful 
and  unpretentious,  with  virtually  no  reference  to  himself.  At  his  specific  direc- 
tion flower  memorials  were  omitted  and  the  Christian  flag  draped  his  casket. 
It  was  fltting  that  the  simple  service  was  concluded  with  the  singing  of  the 
Hallelujah  Chorus  from  Handel's  Messiah.

ROBERT  LEROY  McMILLAN 


ROBERT  LEROY  McMILLAN 

Robert  Leroy  McMillan,  a  distinguished  attorney  in  Raleigh  and  a  trustee  of 
the  Baptist  State  Convention  of  North  Carolina  from  1931  to  1968  died  on  May 
9,  1969  at  the  age  of  80.  Born  in  the  Riverton  community  of  Scotland  County, 
baptized  in  the  Spring  Hill  Baptist  Church,  and  educated  at  Wake  Forest  Col- 
lege and  Columbia  University,  Mr.  McMillan  was  a  member  of  a  family  illus- 
trious in  Baptist  history.  One  brother,  Hudson,  became  the  well  known  mis- 
sionary to  China  and  another  brother,  John  Arch,  was  the  highly  respected 
editor  of  Charity  and  Children  for  many  years.  His  kinsmen  include  also  such 
names  as  Livingston  Johnson,  Archibald  Johnson,  and  John  Charles  McNeill. 
Following  his  graduation  from  Wake  Forest  College  Mr.  McMillan  achieved 
long-standing  recognition  as  a  school  teacher  in  Robeson  County.  After  his 
graduation  from  the  Law  School  of  Columbia  University  he  entered  the  service 
of  his  country  in  World  War  I.  Upon  his  separation  from  the  armed  services 
in  1919  he  came  to  Raleigh  and  immediately  joined  the  Pullen  Memorial  Bap- 
tist Church,  which  had  just  moved  to  its  new  location  near  N.  C.  State  Uni- 
versity, and  where  he  served  as  a  Sunday  School  superintendent,  deacon  and 
trustee.  In  appreciation  and  high  regard  for  his  service  to  the  church,  a  Sunday 
School  class  was  named  in  his  honor  shortly  before  his  death. 

Married  to  the  former  Mary  Lee  Swann  of  Kingstree,  South  Carolina,  who 
survives  him,  Mr.  McMillan  was  the  father  of  two  sons,  both  practicing  attorneys 
in  Raleigh  and  public  leaders  in  the  community  and  throughout  the  State.  A 
gentle  and  a  generous  man,  proud  of  his  Scottish  ancestry  and  his  Baptist 
antecedents,  he  walked  among  us  with  a  strong  and  yet  simple  faith,  with  deep 
commitments  to  whatsoever  was  lovely  and  gracious  and  of  a  good  report,  with 
an  undying  faith  in  the  goodness  of  man  and  the  eternal  mercy  of  God.

SYDNOR  L.  STEALEY 


An  editorial  in  the  August  2,  1969  issue  of  the  Biblical  Recorder  states, 

"Dr.  S.  L.  Stealey  was  a  man  of  many  talents.  He  was  a  successful  editor, 
a  powerful  preacher,  a  meticulous  scholar,  an  able  teacher,  and  a  tireless  ad- 
ministrator. Even  after  he  began  the  presidency  at  Southeastern  Seminary,  his 
first  love  was  preaching  and  teaching; — and  in  those  busy  and  trying  years — 
he  found  time  to  teach  at  least  one  class.  A  constant  stream  of  students  made 
their  way  both  to  his  office  and  to  his  home  where  they  knew  they  would  get 
sympathetic  understanding,  not  only  from  him,  but  from  Mrs.  Stealey.  Her  quiet 
strength  and  unfailing  loyalty  enriched  his  ministry  and  endears  her  to  all 
those  who  knew  and  loved  him. 

"Dr.  Stealey  remained  contemporary  until  the  time  of  his  death.  He  believed 
in  a  liberal  education.  By  liberal.  Dr.  Stealey  did  not  mean  a  doctrinaire  stance. 
To  him  liberal  education  meant  participating  in  that  vast  body  of  knowledge 
and  wisdom  of  the  ages  which  frees  man's  mind  for  new  quests  for  truth.  That 
freedom  is  found,  he  believed,  in  the  Christian's  highest  commitment  to  Jesus 
Christ  as  Lord." 

Dr.  S.  L.  Stealey  was  born  in  Martinsburg,  West  Virginia  on  March  7,  1897. 
He  was  the  son  of  a  Baptist  minister,  Clarence  Perry  Stealey  and  Anna  Jamie- 
son  Sydnor  Stealey,  and  a  graduate  of  Oklahoma  Baptist  University  and  South- 
ern Baptist  Theological  Seminary,  where  he  was  fellow  to  Edgar  Young  Mullins. 
He  married  Jessie  Wheeler  of  Wynnewood,  Oklahoma.  They  had  two  children, 
Louise  (Mrs.  Frank  Vance)  and  Sydnor  L.,  Jr. 

Dr.  Stealey  served  as  Second  Lieutenant  in  the  U.  S.  Army  during  World 
War  I,  and  was  principal  of  a  high  school  in  Ringling,  Oklahoma,  1920-22.  He  was 
ordained  to  the  Christian  ministry  in  1922,  and  served  as  teacher  at  William 
Jewell  College,  1922-24,  and  as  pastor  of  Baptist  churches  in  Missouri  and 
Kentucky,  1925-32.  Other  pastorates  followed:  First  Baptist  Church,  Bloom- 
ington,  Indiana,  1932-34;  Bainbridge  Street  Baptist  Church,  Richmond,  Virginia, 
1934-38;  First  Baptist  Church,  Raleigh,  North  Carolina,  1938-42. 

He  served  as  professor  of  Church  History  at  Southern  Baptist  Theological 
Seminary,  1942-51. 

In  February,  1951,  he  was  elected  the  first  president  of  Southeastern  Baptist 
Theological  Seminary,  which  opened  that  fall  on  the  Wake  Forest  College 
campus  with  85  students  and  four  faculty  members.  He  guided  the  institution 
through  its  formative  years  and  saw  it  win  full  accreditation  by  the  American 
Association  of  Theological  Schools  in  June  1958.  He  served  on  the  executive 
committees  of  the  Baptist  State  Convention  in  Indiana  and  North  Carolina  and 
was  a  member  of  the  Southern  Baptist  Convention's  executive  committee, 
1938-43.  He  contributed  articles  to  various  encyclopedias  and  Baptist  periodicals. 
In  1958  he  edited  A  Baptist  Treasury,  a  source  book  on  Baptist  history.  He  is 
listed  in  Who's  Who  in  America.  Upon  his  retirement  (July  31,  1963),  the 
administration  building  at  Southeastern  Seminary  was  named  Stealey  Hall  in 
his  honor.  He  died  July  24,  1969,  and  is  buried  in  the  Seminary  Cemetery  at 
Wake  Forest,  North  Carolina.

CONSTITUTION 


PREAMBLE 

For  the  declaration  of  its  fundamental  purposes  and  the  perma-

Bible  and  sound  religious  literature,  and  to  co-operate  with  the 
work  of  the  Southern  Baptist  Convention. 

ARTICLE  III.  Authority 

While  independent  and  sovereign  in  its  own  sphere,  the  Con- 
vention does  not  claim  and  will  never  attempt  to  exercise  any

The  Convention  shall  be  composed  of 

(1)  Two  messengers  from  each  co-operating  church,  and  one

powers  granted  to  trustees  of  religious  societies  by  the  laws  of  the

posed by  this  Constitution  and  by  action  of  the  Convention,  its 
General  Board  or  Executive  Committee.  They  shall  require  the

on  the  part  of  the  Treasurer  to  maintain  such  a  bond  in  force 
for  as  long  a  period  as  ten  days  shall  authorize  the  Trustees  to 
remove  him  from  office.  The  Trustees  shall  make  full,  detailed 
reports  to  the  annual  sessions  of  the  Convention  and  at  other 
times  if  requested  by  the  General  Board.  They  shall  safely  keep

Convention,  its  General  Board  or  Executive  Committee.  The  seal 
shall  be  circular  in  form  and  shall  bear  the  words: 

"Trustees  of  the  Baptist  State  Convention  of  North  Carolina,  In- 
corporated 1893.  Seal." 

The  Trustees  shall  keep  full  minutes  of  all  their  meetings  and 
preserve  the  same  in  permanent  forms.  They  shall  elect  their  own 
Chairman  and  Secretary.  Any  vacancy  occurring  in  their  member- 
ship between  sessions  of  the  Convention  shall  be  filled  by  the

A.  Description  of  Emphasis  and  Activities 

1.  Objective 

The  Council  on  Christian  Life  and  Public  Affairs  shall  assist  North 
Carolina  Baptists  in  the  propagation  of  the  gospel  by: 

a.  Helping  North  Carolina  Baptists  to  become  more  aware  of  the 
ethical  implications  of  the  Christian  gospel  with  regard  to  such 
aspects  of  daily  living  as  family  life,  human  relations,  moral  issues, 
economic  life  and  daily  work,  citizenship,  public  affairs  and  related 
fields;  and  by 

b.  Helping  them  create,  with  God's  leadership  and  by  His  grace 
the  kind  of  moral  and  social  climate  in  which  the  North  Carolina 
Baptist  witness  for  Christ  will  be  most  effective.  This  emphasis  in 
the  field  of  applied  Christianity  is  to  be  pursued  with  the  full  aware- 
ness that  the  chief  concern  of  the  Council  on  Christian  Life  and  Pub- 
lic Affairs  is  in  the  area  of  Christian  social  ethics  which  is  under-

economic  life,  daily  work  and  citizenship.  These  seminars  may  be 
both  statewide  and  regional  as  required  by  circumstances.  Such 
plans  for  seminars  should  take  cognizance  of  other  North  Carolina 
Baptist  Convention  agencies  having  interest  in  any  of  these  areas.

Carolina.

so  as  to  qualify  as  a  source  of  authentic  information  on  all  matters 
pertaining  to  the  field  of  Christian  social  ethics,  including  alcohol, 
gambling,  pornography  and  other  items. 

b.  Assists  editors,  scholars,  teachers,  writers,  and  other  specialists

search survey  facilities  of  existing  agencies  should  be  used  when

ments, conferences,  colleges,  or  wherever  the  need  may  develop.  It 
shall  be  the  duty  of  this  committee  to  study  developments  in  the  area 
of  church-state  relations,  to  be  alert  to  developments  within  the  state 
and  nation  which  violate  or  compromise  the  historic  Baptist  position 
of  a  free  church  in  a  free  state.  It  shall  attend  conferences  and  semi- 
nars where  these  matters  are  being  discussed.  It  shall  report  to  the 
Baptist  State  Convention  on  any  developments  in  this  area  and 
otherwise  keep  our  people  informed.  This  Council  shall  recognize 
that  its  primary  responsibility  is  to  speak  to  our  people  rather  than 
for  them.

11.  John  L.  Ryberg,  Smithfield,  alternate  to  preach  the  Conven- 
tion sermon,  read  2  Corinthians  5:14-21,  and  led  the  Convention  in 
prayer. 

12.  Russell  T.  Cherry,  Jr.,  Rocky  Mount,  delivered  the  Convention 
sermon  on  the  subject,  "The  Ministry  of  Reconciliation."  This  minis- 
try requires  of  every  Christian  that  he  live  in  close  fellowship  with 
the  Spirit  of  God.  In  our  desire  to  be  where  the  action  is,  there  is  an 
everpresent  danger  that  we  shall  attempt  to  do  in  our  own  strength 
and  not  in  God's.  In  the  words  of  Paul  Tillich,  "...  the  question 
'What  shall  we  do?'  must  be  answered  with  the  question  'Whence 
can  we  receive?'  "  This  ministry  requires  that  we  live  in  close 
fellowship  with  people.  We  need  to  really  look  at  each  other — to 
really  care  as  Jesus  did.  This  ministry  requires  of  us  that  we  bring 
God  and  men  together  by  telling  men  about  Jesus,  who  humbled 
himself  and  became  obedient  unto  death,  even  the  death  of  the  cross. 
It  requires  us  to  go  beyond  merely  talking  to  ourselves  within  the 
church,  and  to  live  redemptively  in  human  society. 

13.  The  benediction  for  the  Monday  evening  session  was  pro- 
nounced by  John  L.  Ryberg,  Smithfield. 

TUESDAY  MORNING 

14.  The  piano  meditation  was  presented  by  James  Reich,  Monroe. 

15.  The  Convention  was  called  to  order  by  President  Bowen. 

16.  Joseph  O.  Stroud  led  the  Convention  in  singing  "Crown  Him 
with  Many  Crowns." 

17.  A  period  of  worship  was  led  by  Page  H.  Kelley,  Associate 
Professor  of  Old  Testament  Interpretation,  Southern  Baptist  Theo- 
logical Seminary,  Louisville,  Kentucky,  and  by  a  Male  Quartet 
composed  of  Jack  Alexander,  Fayetteville,  Charles  L.  Dotson,  Char- 
lotte, Charles  Storey,  Kannapolis,  and  Hal  Shoemaker,  Charlotte. 
This  was  the  first  of  three  such  worship  periods  to  be  conducted  by 
them.  Following  the  prayer  led  by  Page  H.  Kelley,  the  Male  Quartet 
sang  "God,  the  Lord,  a  King  Remaineth"  (William  Owen,  arr.  by 
William  J.  Reynolds).  Page  H.  Kelley  related  a  personal  experience, 
three  years  ago  when  his  daughter  was  scheduled  to  be  on  an  air- 
liner which  crashed,  and  it  was  hours  later  before  they  learned  she 
was  safe.  From  this  he  learned  three  lessons:  how  much  his  family 
really  means  to  him,  how  much  the  fellowship  of  Christians  means 
in  times  of  crisis,  and  the  wonder  of  the  providence  of  God. 

18.  President  Bowen  recognized  new  pastors  in  the  state.  Upon 
his  invitation,  a  number  of  new  pastors  came  to  the  platform  to  give 
their  names  and  places  of  service. 

19.  Representatives  from  agencies  of  the  Southern  Baptist  Con- 
vention were  recognized,  as  follows:  Page  H.  Kelley,  Southern  Bap- 
tist Theological  Seminary,  Louisville,  Kentucky;  Raymond  B.  Brown, 
Southeastern  Baptist  Theological  Seminary,  Wake  Forest;  and 
Lowell  Sodeman,  Industrial  Chaplaincy,   Chaplains  Commission,

ble,  Bladenboro;  Mrs.  John  Lewis,  Raleigh;  Mrs.  Carl  Bates,  Char- 
lotte; Jerry  Wallace,  Elizabethtown;  and  Jack  Roe,  Greensboro. 

21.  W.  W.  Finlator,  Raleigh,  offered  the  following  resolution 
which  was  referred  to  the  Committee  on  Resolutions : 

The  Bible,  the  church,  the  nation,  the  courts  bear  witness  to  a 
tradition  that  is  deep  in  our  humanity.  It  is  a  tradition  as  old  as 
Exodus  and  as  new  as  contemporary  jurisprudence.  In  the  22nd 
chapter  of  Exodus  we  read:  "If  a  man  steals  an  ox  or  a  sheep 
and  kills  it  or  sells  it,  he  shall  pay  5  oxen  for  every  ox  and  4  sheep 
for  a  sheep.  He  shall  make  restitution."  We  are  aware  of  those 
searching  words  of  Jesus  requiring,  before  we  place  our  gifts  upon 
the  altar,  that  we  remember  if  our  brother  has  anything  against 
us — not  if  we  have  anything  against  him — and,  if  so,  that  we  first 
reconcile  the  matter  and  then  offer  the  gift  which  God  will  find 
acceptable.  To  this  end  the  Apostle  Paul  reminds  us  that  God 
was  in  Christ  reconciling  the  world  unto  Himself  and  that  he  has 
given  unto  us  the  ministry  of  reconciliation. 

Our  Judaic^Christian  heritage  reflects  this  same  spirit  and  prin- 
ciple. In  the  Standard  Jewish  Encyclopedia  are  found  these  words: 
"Forgiveness  of  sin  depends  upon  true  repentance  while  a  wrong 
done  to  a  fellow-man  requires  rectification  and  restitution  before 
forgiveness  is  possible."  Roman  Catholic  theology  states  it  simi- 
larly: "Restitution  is  an  act  of  commutative  justice  whereby  prop- 
erty has  been  restored  to  one  who  has  been  deprived  of  it  by  unjust 
damage  or  threat"  (New  Catholic  Encyclopedia,  pages  400,  401, 
Vol.  12).  The  World  Council  of  Churches  in  its  first  Consultation 
on  Race  this  May  in  London,  strongly  endorsed  the  principle  of 
reparation.  But  fifty  years  before  this  the  Baptist  theologian, 
A.  H.  Strong,  a  very  reputable  and  orthodox  and  conservative 
thinker,  wrote  in  his  book.  Systematic  Theology:  "True  repentance 
is  indeed  manifested  and  evidenced  by  confession  of  sin  before 
God  and  by  reparation  for  wrongs  done  to  men." 

Abraham  Lincoln  spoke  to  the  heart  of  both  North  and  South 
and  still  in  our  day  stirs  our  patriotism  at  its  deepest  level  with 
these  words  of  reparation:  "With  m.alice  toward  none;  with  charity 
for  all;  with  firmness  in  the  right,  as  God  gives  us  to  see  the  right, 
let  us  strive  on  to  finish  the  work  we  are  in;  to  bind  up  the  na- 
tion's wounds;  to  care  for  him  who  shall  have  borne  the  battle, 
and  for  his  widow,  and  his  orphan — to  do  all  which  may  achieve 
and  cherish  a  just  and  lasting  peace  among  ourselves,  and  with 
all  nations."  Our  courts  of  equity,  our  G.  I.  Bill  of  Rights,  our 
social  and  educational  agencies  for  the  physically  and  mentally 
handicapped,  our  reparations  to  people  of  other  countries,  all  bear 
eloquent  witness  to  our  national  commitment  to  justice  and  com- 
passion, and  equity. 

In  the  light  of  this  rich  heritage  of  Bible  and  church  and  state  be 
it  therefore  resolved  that  the  Baptists  of  North  Carolina,  whose  lot 
has  been  cast  in  so  goodly  a  heritage,  shall  strive  together  the 
more  abundantly  to  extend  to  others  what  we  so  richly  enjoy;  that 


64 


Baptist  State  Convention 


we  acknowledge  with  sorrow  the  injustices  and  deprivations  suf- 
fered by  millions  of  our  fellow  citizens  through  the  years  and  to 
this  day  and  our  involvement  therein;  and  that  out  of  our  own  free 
will  and  volition  we  now  move  firmly  and  positively  to  make  re- 
stitution as  befits  those  to  whom  has  been  given  the  ministry  of 
reconciliation.  "Behold,  Lord,"  said  Zacchaeus,  "the  half  of  my 
goods  I  give  to  the  poor,  and  if  I  have  defrauded  anyone  of  any- 
thing, I  restore  it  fourfold." 

22.  William  A.  Snyder,  Asheville,  Chairman  of  the  Committee  on 
Enrollment  announced  that  as  of  9:30  a.m.  there  were  1,900  regis- 
tered messengers  and  444  visitors,  totaling  2,344. 

23.  Clarence  E.  Godwin,  Oxford,  in  behalf  of  W.  Randall  LoUey, 
Winston-Salem,  Chairman  of  the  Committee  on  Committees,  made 
a  motion  that  the  following  serve  on  the  Committee  on  Resolu- 
tions: Irvin  W.  Adcock,  New  Hope;  Richard  Davis,  Rocky  Mount; 
Cyrus  W.  Bazemore,  Raleigh;  Duncan  L.  Futrelle,  Charlotte;  Tom 
Elmore,  Winston-Salem;  Wilbur  A.  Huneycutt,  Valdese;  Mrs.  Charles 
B.  Howard,  Buies  Creek;  Crate  H.  Jones,  Durham;  Stewart  A. 
Newman,  Buies  Creek;  Dale  Sessions,  Wilson;  Henry  B.  Stokes, 
Buies  Creek;  Toby  P.  Stone,  Jr.,  Boonville;  Charles  Storey,  Kan- 
napolis;  G.  Scott  Turner,  Jr.,  Hamlet;  Irby  B.  Jackson,  Greenville, 
Chairman.  The  motion  was  seconded  and  carried. 

24.  James  C.  Cammack,  Fayetteville,  President  of  the  General 
Board,  introduced  the  Report  of  the  General  Board  of  the  Baptist 
State  Convention  of  North  Carolina,  which  is  reprinted  in  full  on 
pages  91-197  of  this  Annual.  He  spoke  concerning  the  financial 
growth  of  the  Convention,  changes  within  the  Convention  staff,  and 
developments  in  Convention-owned  property.  [See  pages  93-101  of 
the  Annual  for  the  more  complete  written  report.] 

25.  Leon  P.  Spencer,  Raleigh,  Business  Manager  and  Comptroller 
of  the  Baptist  State  Convention,  called  attention  to  the  "Report  of 
the  Business  Manager"  as  found  on  pages  111-122  of  the  Report  of 
the  General  Board  of  the  Baptist  State  Convention  of  North  Caro- 
lina, emphasizing  the  careful  manner  in  which  all  funds  are  han- 
dled. He  reported  that  during  the  first  nine  months  of  1969  the 
Cooperative  Program  receipts  were  up  7.72  per  cent  as  compared 
with  1968. 

26.  R.  F.  Smith,  Jr.,  Durham,  a  member  of  the  Executive  Com- 
mittee of  the  General  Board,  presented  Recommendation  Number  1 
concerning  the  proposed  budget  for  1970,  as  found  on  pages  101-107 
of  the  Annual. 

27.  Howard  J.  Ford,  Raleigh,  Director  of  the  Division  of  Mis- 
sions of  the  Baptist  State  Convention  spoke  concerning  the  work  of 
his  division  [See  pages  120-133  of  the  Annual]. 

28.  E.  J.  Prevatte,  Southport,  a  member  of  the  Executive  Com- 
mittee of  the  General  Board,  presented  Recommendation  Number  2 
concerning  proposed  changes  in  the  Constitution  and  By-Laws  of 
the  Convention,  as  found  on  pages  107-111  of  the  Annual. 

29.  W.  Perry  Crouch,  General  Secretary-Treasurer  of  the  Baptist 


OF  North  Carolina 


65 


State  Convention,  spoke  concerning  the  increase  of  Cooperative 
Program  receipts  and  the  State  Missions  Offering.  He  reminded  the 
Convention  that  all  money  above  $250,000  in  the  1969  State  Mis- 
sions Offering  will  go  for  aid  to  Mississippi  Baptists  who  suffered 
severely  as  the  result  of  a  hurricane.  He  spoke  concerning  changes 
in  the  Convention  staff  for  the  purpose  of  strengthening  our  work 
with  youth  and  concerning  developments  at  Fruitland,  Caswell, 
CaRAway,  and  Mundo  Vista.  He  described  the  work  of  a  special 
committee  in  North  Carolina  and  other  states  in  the  Southern  Bap- 
tist Convention  seeking  to  adjust  our  programs  to  the  challenge  of  a 
secular  world  in  the  70's.  He  emphasized  the  renewed  dedication 
which  our  task  demands. 

30.  President  Bowen  presented  David  Brookshire,  Calvary  Baptist 
Church,  Asheville,  and  Tim  Register,  Immanuel  Baptist  Church, 
Clinton,  who  are  Royal  Ambassadors  serving  as  Pages  for  the 
Convention. 

31.  Joseph  O.  Stroud,  Secretary  of  the  Department  of  Church 
Music  of  the  Baptist  State  Convention,  led  the  Convention  in  singing 
"Take  My  Life,  and  Let  It  Be  Consecrated." 

32.  President  Bowen  introduced  to  the  Convention  J.  B.  Willis, 
Hamlet,  who  has  attended  every  session  of  the  Baptist  State  Con- 
vention since  1908. 

33.  James  Y.  Greene,  Secretary  of  the  Student  Department,  made 
an  appeal  to  the  Convention  concerning  sending  students  to  a 
Church-Related  Vocations  Conference  in  Atlanta. 

34.  President  Bowen  announced  that  First  Vice-President 
David  M.  Britt,  Raleigh,  will  preside  over  the  next  portion  of  the 
session. 

35.  Nathan  C.  Brooks,  Jr.,  Director  of  the  Division  of  Church 
Programs  of  the  Baptist  State  Convention,  addressed  the  Conven- 
tion on  the  subject  "Shaping  the  70's"  [See  pages  135-154  for  the  re- 
port of  his  division].  He  spoke  concerning  the  many  changes 
which  have  been  in  the  planning  stages  for  many  months,  and  the 
need  for  our  church  people  to  become  acquainted  with  these  im- 
proved methods.  He  stressed  the  importance  of  the  "Leadership 
Tours"  for  eight  regions  of  the  state,  as  found  on  pages  138-139  of  the 
Annual. 

36.  Corbin  L.  Cooper,  Raleigh,  Secretary  of  the  Department  of 
Interracial  Cooperation  of  the  Baptist  State  Convention,  spoke 
concerning  the  work  of  his  department  [See  pages  125-126  of  the 
Annual],  and  introduced  O.  L.  Sherrill,  Raleigh,  Executive  Secre- 
tary of  the  General  Baptist  Convention.  O.  L.  Sherrill  expressed 
appreciation  for  the  fellowship  we  share  in  Christ,  and  introduced 
David  Hedgely. 

37.  David  R.  Hedgely,  pastor  of  the  First  Baptist  Church,  High- 
land Avenue,  Winston-Salem,  addressed  the  Convention,  raising 
penetrating  questions  concerning  the  dire  needs  and  perplexing 
problems  of  American  society  today,  especially  as  this  relates  to 
race  problems.  He  read  an  imaginary,  but  deeply  penetrating,  epistle 


66 


Baptist  State  Convention 


of  Paul  to  20th  century  America  concerning  how  Christian  prin- 
ciples should  be  applied  in  a  practical  way  to  these  problems. 

38.  The  Male  Quartet  [See  Item  17  above]  sang  Love 
Surpassing  Knowledge"  (Hoffman). 

39.  First  Vice-President  Britt  presented  President  Claud  B.  Bowen, 
Greensboro,  for  his  President's  Address  to  the  Convention.  Presi- 
dent Bowen  spoke  concerning  the  needs  of  our  world,  pointing  out 
that  we  not  only  have  changing  standards,  but  attempts  to  repudi- 
ate all  standards.  He  then  stressed  the  adequacy  of  the  Gospel  and 
the  witnessing  task  of  the  Baptist  State  Convention,  with  emphasis 
on  Christian  love  as  the  only  motivating  force  which  is  adequate 
for  such  a  costly  work. 

40.  The  benediction  for  the  Tuesday  morning  session  was  pro- 
nounced by  Fred  Lunsford,  Marble. 

TUESDAY  AFTERNOON 

41.  The  piano  meditation  was  presented  by  James  Reich,  Monroe. 

42.  The  Convention  was  called  to  order  by  President  Bowen. 
The  Convention  sang,  "I  Am  Thine,  O  Lord"  under  the  leadership 
of  Joseph  O.  Stroud,  Secretary  of  the  Department  of  Church  Music 
of  the  Baptist  State  Convention  and  engaged  in  a  period  of  worship 
led  by  Page  H.  Kelley,  Louisville,  Kentucky,  and  the  Male  Quartet 
[See  Item  17  above].  Page  H.  Kelley  read  Psalm  8  and  led  in 
prayer.  The  quartet  sang  Brother  Man,  Fold  to  Thy  Heart  Thy 
Brother"  (Lerman).  Page  H.  Kelley  spoke  concerning  the  question 
"What  is  man?"  We  begin  to  answer  this  question  only  when  we 
realize  who  God  is  and  how  he  responds  in  compassion  to  the  cry 
of  a  little  child.  All  of  God's  mighty  works  since  creation  have  be- 
gun with  the  birth  of  a  baby;  man,  however  insignificant,  is  the 
crown  of  God's  creation  and  the  instrument  of  his  purpose. 

43.  The  time  having  arrived  for  the  election  of  officers,  the  floor 
was  opened  for  nominations  for  the  office  of  President.  William  T.

that  the  nominations  cease;  it  was  seconded  and  carried.  The  vote 
was  taken  by  standing. 

45.  While  the  vote  for  First  Vice-President  was  being  tallied, 
William  A.  Snyder,  Asheville,  Chairman  of  the  Committee  on  En-

Whereas  the  actual  wording  of  the  ruling  of  the  United  States 
Supreme  Court  (page  9,  Engel  V.  Vitale,  June  25,  1962,  Supreme 
Court  of  The  United  States  (Decisions),  Opinions,  No.  468,  Nos. 
142  and  119;  U.  S.  Government  Printing  Office,  Washington:  1963) 
does  make  it  clear  that  the  United  States  Supreme  Court  did  rule 
against  Voluntary  Prayer  in  the  public  schools  in  these  words, 
"Neither  the  fact  that  the  prayer  may  be  denominationally  neutral, 
nor  the  fact  that  its  observance  on  the  part  of  the  students  is 
VOLUNTARY  can  serve  to  free  it  from  the  limitations  of  the 
Establishment  Clause  ...  of  the  First  Amendment";  and 

Whereas  we  believe  that  prayer  unto  God  should  always  and  in 
all  places  be  Voluntary  on  the  part  of  the  individual;  and 

Whereas  we,  the  Baptists  of  North  Carolina,  do  not  agree  with

Baptist  State  Convention 


the  afore  stated  and  mentioned  ruling  of  the  United  States  Supreme  \ 
Court  against  Voluntary  Prayer  in  the  public  schools; 

Now  THEREFORE  BE  IT  RESOLVED 

That  we  the  Baptist  State  Convention  of  North  Carolina  meeting 
November  10-12,  1969,  in  our  139th  Annual  Session,  Municipal 
Auditorium,  Fayetteville,  North  Carolina,  go  on  record  giving  our 
approval  to  Voluntary  Prayer  in  the  public  schools. 

57.  W.  Bryant  Carr,  Matthews,  offered  the  following  resolution, 
which  was  referred  to  the  Committee  on  Resolutions : 

Be  it  resolved  that  this  Convention  in  official  session  express  its 
appreciation  to  the  Christian  Action  League  of  North  Carolina  and 
its  Executive  Director  D.  P.  McFarland,  to  Marse  Grant,  Editor  of 
The  Biblical  Recorder,  to  Dr.  J.  C.  Stokes,  Editor  of  The  Christian 
Advocate,  and  to  those  members  of  the  General  Assembly  and  all 
others  who  worked  against  the  liberalization  of  the  sale  and  use  of 
alcoholic  beverages  in  North  Carolina  and  for  their  success  in  de- 
feating bills  that  would  have  legalized  the  sale  of  liquor  by  the 
drink. 

Be  it  further  resolved  that  we  call  upon  the  pastors  and  people 
of  our  churches  to  be  alerted  to  the  fact  that  efforts  are  being 
made  and  will  continue  to  be  made  in  the  halls  of  the  legislature 
to  liberalize  the  sale  and  use  of  alcoholic  beverages,  and  that  we 
urge  vigorous  opposition  to  all  efforts  of  this  nature  and  urge  the 
citizens  of  this  state  to  support  by  ballot  those  candidates  who 
will  oppose  any  liberalized  legislative  acts  that  would  lead  to  in- 
creased drinking  and  its  destructive  effects  on  our  society.  g 

Be  it  further  resolved  that  we  encourage  individuals  and  churches 
to  give  added  financial  support  to  the  Christian  Action  League  as  it 
seeks  to  combat  this  and  other  evils  that  are  so  prevalent  in  our  day.  ^ 

58.  Marse  Grant,  Raleigh,  Editor  of  the  Biblical  Recorder,  an- 
nounced that  word  has  been  received  of  the  death  last  night  of  the 
mother  of  our  President-Elect  John  E.  Lawrence,  and  made  a  mo- 
tion that  the  Recording  Secretary  send  a  message  of  Christian  love 
to  Lawrence  and  his  family.  It  was  seconded  and  carried.  [This 
was  done  by  telephone  immediately  after  the  close  of  the  afternoon 
session — LJB.] 

59.  Henry  B.  Stokes,  Buies  Creek,  offered  the  following  resolu- 
tion, which  was  referred  to  the  Committee  on  Resolutions: 

Whereas  article  VI  of  the  United  States  Constitution  specifically 
states  that  provisions  of  treaties  ratified  by  the  United  States  Gov- 
ernment become  the  "supreme  law  of  the  land,"  notwithstanding 
contrary  limitations  of  the  Constitution  itself;  and 

Whereas  notwithstanding  solemn  promises  ratified  at  the  inter- 
national conference  at  Geneva  that  all  prisoners  of  war  captured 
would  be  given  the  respect  of  humane  treatment;  that  Article  2  of 
the  convention  provides  that  it  "shall  apply  to  all  cases  of  de- 
clared war  or  any  other  armed  conflict  which  may  arise  between 


OF  North  Carolina 


69 


two  or  more  of  the  High  Contracting  parties,  even  if  the  state  of 
war  is  not  recognized  by  one  of  them";  and 

Whereas  the  government  of  North  Vietnam  acceded  to  the  con- 
vention on  June  28,  1957,  and  the  government  of  South  Vietnam 
acceded  to  the  convention  on  November  14,  1953,  and  the  govern- 
ment of  the  United  States  acceded  to  the  convention  on  August  2, 
1955;  no  pretense  of  compliance  has  been  advanced  by  North  Viet- 
nam or  the  National  Liberation  Front  (Viet  Cong)  despite  the  re- 
minder to  do  so  on  June  11,  1965,  by  M.  Jacques  Freymond,  Vice 
President  of  the  International  Committee  of  the  Red  Cross,  and 

Whereas  repeated  appeals  on  the  part  of  wives,  parents,  relatives 
and  dependents  of  those  unfortunate  victims  of  Communist  violence 
have  proven  ineffective  through  the  United  States  Department  of 
State, 

Now  THEREFORE  BE  IT  RESOLVED  THAT 

1.  A  more  determined  effort  be  made  by  our  State  Department  to 
obtain  the  release  of  names  of  prisoners  held. 

2.  Immediate  release  of  sick  and  wounded  prisoners. 

3.  Impartial  inspections  of  prisoner  of  war  facilities. 

4.  Proper  treatment  of  all  prisoners. 

5.  Regular  flow  of  mail. 

6.  Most  importantly,  to  obtain  the  release  and  freedom  from 
captivity  of  those  American  fighting  men  of  this  "undeclared" 
war  with  North  Vietnam.  And  be  it 

Further  resolved 

That  there  be  enacted  by  the  Congress  of  the  United  States  a  code 
of  protective  legislation  similar  to  the  Uniform  Code  of  Military 
Justice,  Public  law  506,  applicable  to  American  personnel  captured 
in  military  operations  other  than  in  a  "declared  war"  to  assure 
that  the  full  force,  authority,  and  power  of  the  United  States  of 
America  shall  henceforth  be  publicly  committed  to  the  attainment 
of  freedom  from  captivity  of  all  Americans  captured  in  such  mili- 
tary actions,  past  and  future. 

60.  W.  W.  Finlator,  Raleigh,  offered  the  following  resolution, 
which  was  referred  to  the  Committee  on  Resolutions : 

Whereas  Baptists  have  cherished  and  espoused  the  time  honored 
tradition  of  church-state  separation,  and  shared  in  the  incorporation 
of  this  principle  in  the  provision  of  the  First  Amendment  to  the 
United  States  Constitution  regarding  both  the  free  exercise  of  re- 
ligion and  the  no-establishment  clause;  and 

Whereas  Baptists  have  witnessed  to  the  freedom  and  inviolability 
of  conscience  and  demanded  its  protection  across  the  years  by  both 
the  church  and  the  state;  and 

Whereas  conscience  may  be  formed  both  in  the  religious  com- 
munion and  in  the  secular  world,  both  in  the  household  of  faith 
and  in  the  disciplines  of  learning  and  contemplation;  and 


70 


Baptist  State  Convention 


Whereas  the  Selective  Service  operates  to  honor  and  favor  the 
consciences  of  young  men  of  religious  communions  with  pacifist 
traditions  and  to  reject  the  appeals  to  conscience  of  other  young 
men  who  have  arrived  at  their  conscientious  reservations  over  war 
outside  the  church; 

Now  THEREFORE  BE  IT  RESOLVED  : 

(1)  In  conformity  with  our  own  principle,  and  mindful  that  the 
law  specifically  states  "conscientious"  and  not  "religious"  objec- 
tion, that  the  North  Carolina  Baptist  Convention  call  upon  our 
government  and  the  Selective  Service  to  honor  equally  the  con- 
sciences of  all  men  whether  in  the  church  or  outside  the  church 
regarding  their  participation  in  military  service; 

(2)  That  the  Convention  call  upon  the  churches  to  give  moral 
and  spiritual  support  both  to  the  young  men  whose  consciences 
permit  them  to  participate  in  military  service  and  to  young  men 
whose  consciences  prevent  them  from  participation;  and 

(3)  That  we  appeal  to  our  nation  out  of  its  own  tradition  of  com- 
passion and  equity  to  grant  amnesty  to  its  young  citizens  who  have 
chosen  prison  at  home  or  sought  asylum  abroad  to  obey  God  and 
conscience,  according  to  their  convictions,  rather  than  man. 

61.  R.  F.  Mayberry,  Spindale,  made  a  motion  that  the  Finlator 
resolution  be  dealt  with  now.  This  was  ruled  out  of  order. 

62.  R.  F.  Smith,  Jr.,  Durham,  Chairman  of  the  Council  on  Christian 
Higher  Education,  introduced  Ben  C.  Fisher,  Raleigh,  Director  of 
the  Division  of  Christian  Higher  Education,  who  relinquished  his 
time  to  the  Committee  of  20. 

63.  Carl  E.  Bates,  Charlotte,  Chairman  of  the  Committee  of  20, 
introduced  the  report  of  the  Committee  of  20  [reprinted  in  full  on 
pages  198-223  of  the  Annual].  He  concluded  this  introduction  by 
saying  that  without  voting  on  Recommendation  Number  1  we  may 
simply  state  that  we  desire  "that  the  present  relationship  of  our 
institutions  of  higher  learning  with  the  North  Carolina  Baptist 
State  Convention  be  continued  and  strengthened."  Bates  then  moved 
the  adoption  of  Recommendation  2  with  a  slight  change  of  wording 
[See  page  205  of  the  Annual].  The  motion  was  seconded. 

64.  M.  O.  Owens,  Jr.,  Gastonia,  made  a  substitute  motion  that 
Recommendation  2  be  adopted  with  the  deletion  of  the  second 
sentence.  The  motion  was  seconded. 

65.  Robert  Tenery,  Elkin,  moved  the  previous  question.  It  was 
seconded  and  carried.  The  vote  on  Owens'  substitute  motion  was 
taken  by  standing,  with  the  result  that  the  substitute  motion  lost. 

66.  W.  A.  Huneycutt,  Valdese,  moved  the  previous  question.  It 
was  seconded  and  carried.  The  vote  was  then  taken  on  the  original 
motion  [See  Item  63  above]  and  the  motion  was  carried. 

67.  Carl  E.  Bates  moved  the  adoption  of  Recommendation  3 
[See  page  207  of  the  Annual].  It  was  seconded  and  carried.

Baptist  State  Convention 


88.  Carl  E.  Bates  expressed  appreciation  for  the  work  of  the  Com- 
mittee and  the  cooperation  of  the  Convention. 

89.  E.  Paul  West,  Raleigh,  offered  the  following  resolution,  which 
was  referred  to  the  Committee  on  Resolutions : 

Whereas  lately,  we  have  been  witnessing  a  rash  of  Sunday  ex- 
ploitation by  large  discount  store  operators,  who  are — in  their  wide 
open  Sunday  operations — indifferently — if  not  arrogantly — also  dis- 
counting the  Christian  conscience  of  a  broad  sector  of  the  com- 
munity, and 

Whereas  now  more  lately,  this  community  conscience  is  about 
to  be  further  tested,  by  what  we  understand  to  be  the  intention  to 
open  up  for  Sunday  business  by  such  esteemed  institutions  as  the 
companies  of  Sears  and  most  lately  J.  C.  Penney,  and 

Whereas  this  latter  development  leaves  us  sorely  disillusioned 
and  saddened,  —  and,  believing  it  to  be  forboding — if  not  the  be- 
ginning of  the  dissolution  of  the  day — which,  for  so  long  and  for  so 
many,  has  been  set  apart  for  family  stability,  worship  and  rest; 

Therefore,  be  it  resolved 

That  the  sentiment  of  this  Convention  is  that  these  regrettable  and 
unnecessary  incursions  upon  the  sanctity  of  this  day — so  significant 
and  so  beneficient — ^be  vigorously  protested  and  resisted  by  every 
appropriate  means  at  our  command. 

90.  The  benediction  for  the  Tuesday  afternoon  session  was  pro- 
nounced by  Robert  M.  Winecoff ,  Durham. 

TUESDAY  EVENING 

91.  The  piano  meditation  was  presented  by  James  Reich,  Monroe. 

92.  The  Convention  was  called  to  order  by  Second  Vice-President 
Clyde  H.  Tucker,  High  Point.  Joseph  O.  Stroud,  Secretary  of  the 
Department  of  Church  Music  of  the  Baptist  State  Convention,  led 
the  Convention  in  singing  "God  of  Grace  and  God  of  Glory."  The 
Invocation  was  led  by  Charles  Midkif  f ,  Chapel  Hill. 

93.  A.  Douglas  Aldrich,  Gastonia,  led  a  panel  discussion  on  the 
subject  "The  Ferment  in  the  Parish  Ministry."  Those  participating 
on  the  panel  were:  Edwin  H.  Pruden,  Washington,  D.  C,  speaking 
on  "Why  Men  Enter  the  Ministry";  Jerry  M.  Wallace,  Elizabeth- 
town,  speaking  on  "Why  Men  Change  Pastorates  So  Frequently"; 
Donald  D.  Moore,  Southeastern  Baptist  Theological  Seminary,  Wake 
Forest,  speaking  on  "Why  Men  Leave  the  Ministry";  and  Allen 
Bailey,  Charlotte,  speaking  on  "The  Church's  Responsibility  to  Its 
Minister."  Edwin  H.  Pruden  stressed  the  great  variety  of  reasons 
men  enter  the  ministry,  and  the  many  ways  God  may  make  his 
call  known.  Jerry  M.  Wallace  suggested  that  out  of  all  the  many 
reasons  that  pastors  change  churches  so  often,  the  most  prominent 
seem  to  be  the  hope  of  escaping  frustrations  and  anxieties  which 
they  may  not  be  able  to  resolve  and  the  hope  of  finding  a  place

73 


where  the  resources  are  available  which  will  make  their  work 
more  meaningful.  Donald  E.  Moore  said  the  most  common  reasons 
men  leave  the  parish  ministry  are:  a  maturing  understanding  of 
what  is  involved,  a  feeling  that  the  church  is  not  really  accom- 
plishing its  task,  the  sense  of  goldfish  bowl  living,  money  and 
family  problems,  and  emotional  instability.  Allen  Bailey  emphasized 
that  the  church  has  a  responsibility  to  give  its  ministers  adequate 
financial  support  including  home  ownership,  to  give  them  genuine 
friendship  and  helpful  counsel,  to  give  them  time  to  study,  to  relax, 
and  to  work  in  denominational  activities.  Opportunity  was  given 
for  questions  to  the  panel. 

94.  Recording  Secretary  Lamar  J.  Brooks  acknowledged  frater- 
nal greetings  from  Baptists  in  Ohio,  Kentucky,  Maryland,  and  from 
Dr.  Baker  James  Cauthen  and  the  staff  of  the  Foreign  Mission 
Board.  He  then  made  a  motion,  which  was  seconded,  and  carried, 
authorizing  fraternal  greetings  to  be  sent  to  fourteen  Baptist  State 
Conventions  meeting  simultaneously  with  ours.  [The  following 
message  was  sent:  "North  Carolina  Baptists,  in  our  139th  annual 
session,  in  the  spirit  of  our  Convention  Theme,  'The  Ministry  of  the 
Church,'  greet  you  as  fellow-servants  of  Jesus  Christ." — LJB.] 

95.  G.  Carl  Lewis,  Rockingham,  made  a  motion  that  the  Recording 
Secretary  be  authorized  to  send  a  message  of  Christian  love  to 
C.  B.  Deane,  assuring  him  of  our  prayers  during  his  critical  illness. 
C.  B.  Deane  served  this  Convention  for  twenty-five  years  as  Re- 
cording Secretary  and  for  two  years  as  President.  The  motion  was 
seconded  and  carried.  [A  telegram  was  sent  at  the  close  of  the 
evening  session — LJB.] 

96.  The  Seminary  Choir  from  Southeastern  Baptist  Theological 
Seminary,  under  the  direction  of  Ben  S.  Johnson,  sang  "The 
Omnipotence"  (Schubert;  arr.  by  Max  Spicker)  and  "My  Eternal 
King"  (Jane  M.  Marshall).  Ted  Gossett,  University  Baptist  Church, 
Chapel  Hill,  was  the  accompanist  and  the  soloist  was  Mrs.  Shirley 
Roberts. 

97.  Henry  E.  Turlington,  Chapel  Hill,  introduced  Donald  Miller, 
President  of  Pittsburg  Theological  Seminary,  Pittsburg,  Pennsyl- 
vania. 

98.  Donald  Miller  addressed  the  Convention  on  the  subject 
"Preaching,  the  Supreme  Challenge  of  the  Christian  Ministry." 
Preaching,  from  the  Biblical  standpoint,  is  the  proclamation  of 
the  healing  Word  of  God,  God  himself  in  action — to  create,  to 
judge,  and  to  redeem.  The  Bible  is,  itself,  preaching — historical 
events  passionately  retold  in  the  preaching  of  prophets  and  apostles. 
For  us  to  attempt  to  proclaim  the  healing  Word  of  God  by  human 
words  in  a  context  where  the  hearers  are  so  likely  to  judge  one  the 
basis  of  secondary  matters  is  a  humbling  task — it  is  only  when  we 
tremble  before  the  impossibility  of  this  task  that  we  have  a  chance 
of  actually  doing  it.  The  reason  for  this  is  that  in  true  preaching  the 
preacher  seems  to  drop  out  of  the  limelight  and  something  vital 
happens  between  the  listeners  and  God.  While  we  ought  to  join 


74 


Baptist  State  Convention 


other  agencies  in  social  betterment,  we  have  a  unique  task  which 
none  of  them  can  do — to  bring  men  into  a  confrontation  with  God 
by  telling  the  story  of  his  mighty  acts  in  history.  It  is  foolish 
strategy  to  make  demands  upon  people  without  adequate  procla- 
mation of  the  acts  of  God  in  human  life  as  a  foundation, 

99.  President  Bowen  called  attention  to  the  fact  that  today  is 
Veterans  Day.  He  asked  for  silent  prayer  for  the  nation. 

100.  The  benediction  for  the  Tuesday  Evening  session  was  pro- 
nounced by  R.  Dowd  Davis,  Fremont. 


WEDNESDAY  MORNING 

101.  The  organ  meditation  was  presented  by  James  Reich,  Monroe. 

102.  The  Convention  was  called  to  order  by  President  Bowen  and 
engaged  in  a  period  of  worship  led  by  Page  H.  Kelley,  Southern 
Baptist  Theological  Seminary,  Louisville,  Kentucky  and  by  the  Male 
Quartet  [See  Item  17  above.]  Page  H.  Kelley  read  Genesis  22:1-8. 
The  quartet  sang  "How  Firm  a  Foundation"  (Whitman).  Page  H. 
Kelley  said  there  are  no  heroes  in  the  Old  Testament — only  weak 
men  who  commit  their  way  to  God.  Abraham's  story  is  not  always 
one  of  faith;  he  failed  often.  Yet  he  did  trust  God  when  it  mattered 
most.  Abraham  trusted  God  not  only  when  he  was  called  to  cut 
himself  off  from  his  past  by  leaving  Ur,  but  also  when  he  was 
called  to  cut  himself  off  from  his  future  by  sacrificing  Isaac. 

103.  The  time  having  come  for  action  on  the  report  of  the  Gen- 
eral Board,  James  C.  Cammack,  Fayetteville,  President  of  the  Gen- 
eral Board,  recognized  the  General  Board  members  who  were  pres- 
ent and  spoke  concerning  the  work  of  the  Board.  He  introduced 
Mrs.  W.  Perry  Crouch  to  the  Convention  and  expressed  the  ap- 
preciation of  North  Carolina  Baptists  for  her  and  her  husband. 

104.  W.  Perry  Crouch,  Raleigh,  General  Secretary-Treasurer  of 
the  Baptist  State  Convention,  responded  with  words  of  apprecia- 
tion and  then  presented  Mrs.  Claud  B.  Bowen  to  the  Convention.

and  carried. 

130.  Roger  R.  Jackson,  Yadkinville,  pointed  out  that  M.  Kenneth 
Wilson  has  moved  from  the  Yadkin  Association  and  nominated  Paul 
M.  Reece,  Jonesville.  This  was  accepted  as  an  amendment  since  there 
was  no  objection. 

131.  Alfred  T.  Ayscue,  Pine  Level,  nominated  W.  C.  Barham,  Jr., 
Wendell,  to  the  General  Board  from  Johnston  Association  instead  of

132.  John  W.  Steen,  Clayton,  spoke  in  favor  of  the  election  of  G. 
Troy  Page,  Jr.,  whom  he  identified  as  a  very  fine  Christian  layman. 

133.  J.  Boyce  Brooks,  Boone,  raised  a  question  concerning  who  is 
to  be  represented  by  the  person  elected.  It  was  made  clear  that  a 
General  Board  member  is  elected  by  the  Convention  to  serve  as  the 
Convention's  General  Board  member  within  the  association  where 
he  lives;  and  not  elected  by  his  association  as  its  representative  on 
the  General  Board,  which  would  be  a  hierarchical  arrangement 
foreign  to  Baptists.  The  vote  was  taken  by  standing,  with  the  result 
that  W.  C.  Barham,  Jr.,  Wendell,  was  elected. 

134.  Gerald  Primm,  Greensboro,  nominated  A.  Leroy  Parker, 
Greensboro,  in  the  place  of  L.  P.  Sprinkle,  Greensboro,  as  the

135.  John  M.  Lewis,  Raleigh,  rose  to  a  point  of  personal  privilege 
and  inquired  as  to  the  procedure  used  by  the  Committee  on  Nomina- 
tions, and  as  to  details  concerning  the  correspondence  between  the 
Executive  Committee  of  the  Piedmont  Association  and  the  Commit- 
tee on  Nominations. 

136.  Robert  W.  Kicklighter  answered  this  inquiry  in  great  detail, 
pointing  out  that  the  Committee  on  Nominations  requested  four 
nominations  from  the  Executive  Committee  of  each  association,  two 
pastors  and  two  lay  persons.  He  further  stated  that  the  Executive 
Committee  of  the  Piedmont  Association  had  sent  only  one  name  as 
its  nominee  and  when  the  request  was  renewed  for  four  names,  it 
had  still  sent  only  one  name.  He  stated  that  the  Committee  on 
Nominations  had  decided  to  respond  to  this  by  nominating  another 
person. 

137.  Paul  D.  Early,  Greensboro,  stated  that  the  vote  in  Piedmont 
was  a  tie  vote  both  times  the  matter  came  up.

Baptist  State  Convention 


138.  W.  S.  Caudle,  Greensboro,  Clerk  of  the  Piedmont  Association, 
stated  that  the  vote  on  A.  L.  Parker  was  not  a  tie  vote,  but  was 
unanimous.  The  tie  vote,  he  said,  was  on  the  question  of  whether  to 
send  only  one  name.  He  stated  that  L.  P.  Sprinkle,  who  is  the 
nominee  of  the  Committee  on  Nominations,  is  relatively  unknown. 

139.  James  R.  DeLoach,  Charlotte,  rose  to  a  point  of  order,  an- 
swered by  Robert  W.  Kicklighter.  The  vote  was  taken  by  standing, 
with  the  result  that  A.  Leroy  Parker  was  elected. 

140.  Robert  W.  Kicklighter,  Elizabeth  City,  made  a  motion  that  the 
persons  nominated  by  the  Committee  on  Nominations,  with  the 
changes  which  have  just  been  adopted  by  the  Convention,  be  elected 
to  serve  in  the  various  places  which  have  been  indicated.  The  motion 
was  seconded  and  carried.  The  other  members  of  the  Committee  on

In  the  light  of  our  rich  heritage  of  Bible  and  church  and  state, 

Be  It  Therefore  Resolved 

That  the  Baptists  of  North  Carolina,  whose  lot  has  been  cast  in  so 
goodly  a  heritage,  shall  strive  together  the  more  abundantly  to  ex- 
tend to  others  what  we  so  richly  enjoy;  that  we  acknowledge  with 
sorrow  the  injustices  and  deprivations  suffered  by  millions  of  our 
fellow  citizens  through  the  years  and  to  this  day  and  our  involve- 
ment therein;  and  that  out  of  our  own  free  will  and  volition  we  now 
move  firmly  and  positively  to  repair  such  damage  to  our  relationship 
as  possible,  to  break  down  barriers,  that  we  walk  together  in 
brotherly  love,  and  to  heal  the  hurts  to  humanity  through  the  min- 
istry of  reconciliation. 

The  motion  was  seconded. 

144.  W.  W.  Finlator,  Raleigh,  asked  for  clarification.  The  motion

Stokes  concerning  Prisoners  of  War  [See  Item  59  above],  as 
follows : 

Whereas  Article  VI  of  the  United  States  Constitution  specifically 
states  that  provisions  of  treaties  ratified  by  the  United  States  Gov-

Baptist  State  Convention 


ernment  become  the  "supreme  law  of  the  land,"  notwithstanding 
contrary  limitations  of  the  Constitution  itself;  and 

Whereas  notwithstanding  solemn  promises  ratified  at  the  interna- 
tional conference  at  Geneva  that  all  prisoners  of  war  captured  would 
be  given  the  respect  of  humane  treatment;  that  Article  2  of  the 
convention  provides  that  it  "shall  apply  to  all  cases  of  declared  war 
or  any  other  armed  conflict  which  may  arise  between  two  or  more  of 
the  High  Contracting  parties,  even  if  the  state  of  war  is  not 
recognized  by  one  of  them";  and 

Whereas  the  government  of  North  Vietnam  acceded  to  the  con- 
vention on  June  28,  1957,  and  the  government  of  South  Vietnam 
acceded  to  the  convention  on  November  14,  1953,  and  the  govern- 
ment of  the  United  States  acceded  to  the  convention  on  August  2, 
1955;  no  pretense  of  compliance  has  been  advanced  by  North  Viet- 
nam or  the  National  Liberation  Front  (Viet  Cong)  despite  the  re- 
minder to  do  so  on  June  11,  1965,  by  M.  Jacques  Freymond,  Vice 
President  of  the  International  Committee  of  the  Red  Cross,  and 

Whereas  repeated  appeals  on  the  part  of  wives,  parents,  relatives, 
and  dependents  of  those  unfortunate  victims  of  Communist  violence 
[Note:  By  common  consent  the  Convention  changed  the  words 
"Communist  violence"  to  "violence  of  any  power"  (See  Item  147 
below) — LJB.]  have  proven  ineffective  through  the  United  States 
Department  of  State, 

Be  It  Resolved 

That  we  recommend  that  the  United  States  Department  of  State 
vigorously  seek  to  obtain  the  following : 

1.  the  release  of  names  of  prisoners  held  by  North  Vietnam  and 
the  National  Liberation  Front  (Viet  Cong) , 

2.  the  immediate  release  of  sick  and  wounded  prisoners, 

3.  the  impartial  inspection  of  prisoner  of  war  facilities, 

4.  the  proper  treatment  of  all  prisoners, 

5.  the  regular  flow  of  mail,  and 

6.  the  release  and  freedom  from  captivity  of  all  American  fighting 
men  of  this  "undeclared"  war  with  North  Vietnam. 

[Note:  The  Convention  amended  the  resolution  by  adding  at  this 
point:  "It  is  understood  that  these  resolutions  apply  equally  to  all 
other  bodies  engaged  in  the  Viet  Nam  War."  (See  Items  146,  149, 
and  151)— LJB.] 

And  Be  It  Further  Resolved 

That  there  be  enacted  by  the  Congress  of  the  United  States  a  code 
of  protective  legislation  similar  to  the  Uniform  Code  of  Military 
Justice,  other  than  in  "declared  war"  to  assure  that  the  full  force, 
authority,  and  power  of  the  United  States  of  America  shall  hence- 
forth be  publicly  committed  to  the  attainment  of  freedom  from 
captivity  of  all  Americans  captured  in  such  military  actions,  past  and 
future. 

The  motion  was  seconded.

146.  W.  W.  Finlator,  Raleigh,  moved  to  amend  the  resolution  by 
applying  it  equally  to  all  four  bodies  engaged  in  the  Viet  Nam  War, 
to  be  added  at  the  end  of  the  section  "Be  It  Resolved."  The  motion 
to  amend  was  seconded.  W.  W.  Finlator  spoke  to  his  motion  to 
amend. 

147.  Tom  Wood,  Roxboro,  suggested  the  change  of  "Communist 
violence"  to  "violence  of  any  power."  There  was  no  objection  from 
the  body,  so  this  change  was  accepted. 

148.  James  R.  DeLoach,  Charlotte,  requested  that  the  entire 
resolution  be  re-read.  This  was  done  by  Irby  B.  Jackson.

than  four  parties  in  Viet  Nam,  and  W.  W.  Finlator  agreed  to  change 
the  word  "four"  to  "other." 

150.  W.  Bryant  Carr,  Matthews,  attempted  to  refer  the  matter  and 
was  ruled  out  of  order. 

151.  The  vote  was  taken  on  the  amendment  and  was  carried.  The 
vote  on  the  substitute  resolution  of  the  Committee  on  Resolutions, 
as  amended,  was  carried.  Parliamentarian  Bulman  stated  that  the 
original  Stokes  resolution  would  need  to  be  voted  upon,  as  now 
amended  by  the  substitute  from  the  Committee  on  Resolutions,  and 
Irby  B.  Jackson  was  asked  to  re-read  Stokes'  resolution. 

152.  Nane  Starnes,  Asheville,  rose  to  a  point  of  order. 

153.  Warren  T.  Carr,  Winston-Salem,  rose  to  a  point  of  order.  Irby 
B.  Jackson  re-read  Stokes'  resolution  as  requested.  A  vote  was  then 
taken  on  the  original  Stokes  resolution,  as  amended  by  the  substitute 
from  the  Committee  on  Resolutions,  with  the  result  that  it  was 
adopted. 

154.  Irby  B.  Jackson,  Greenville,  Chairman  of  the  Committee  on 
Resolutions,  made  a  motion  to  adopt  a  resolution  from  the  Commit- 
tee on  Resolutions,  as  a  substitute  for  the  one  presented  by  E.  Paul 
West  [See  Item  89  above],  as  follows: 

Whereas  there  is  an  increasing  tendency  to  desecrate  the  Lord's 
Day  by  industrial,  commercial,  and  recreational  enterprises,  and 

Whereas  proper  observance  of  the  Lord's  Day  will  help  to 
stabilize  family  life,  increase  involvement  in  corporate  worship,  and 
enhance  spiritual  growth. 

Therefore,  Be  It  Resolved 

1.  That  we  call  upon  all  Christian  people  to  refuse  to  participate 
in  unnecessary  Sunday  shopping,  and 

2.  That  we  encourage  our  people  to  make  Sunday  a  day  of  rest 
insofar  as  it  is  possible,  and 

3.  That  we  affirm  the  conviction  that  proper  observance  of  the 
Lord's  Day  will  include  faithful  participation  in  worship  and  praise. 
It  was  seconded  and  carried.  President  Bowen  attempted  to  call 
for  a  vote  on  the  West  resolution,  as  amended  by  the  substitute  from 
the  Committee  on  Resolutions.

the  result  that  it  was  adopted. 

159.  Irby  B.  Jackson,  Greenville,  Chairman  of  the  Committee  on 
Resolutions,  moved  that  the  resolution  of  Claud  L.  Asbury  on  Prayer 
in  the  Public  Schools  [See  Item  56  above],  be  referred  to  the 
Council  on  Christian  Life  and  Public  Affairs.  The  motion  was 
seconded. 

160.  Claud  L.  Asbury,  Wilmington,  agreed  that  it  is  a  good  thing  to 
refer  the  matter  to  the  Council  on  Christian  Life  and  Public  Affairs. 
He  then  spoke  in  favor  of  his  resolution. 

161.  Nane  Starnes,  Asheville,  interrupted  Claud  L.  Asbury,  to  ask 
if  it  is  in  order  to  discuss  a  motion  to  refer.  The  President  allowed 
Asbury  to  read  one  other  sentence.  The  motion  was  adopted. 

162.  Henry  E.  Turlington,  Chapel  Hill,  Chairman  of  the  Committee 
on  Convention  Program,  moved  to  extend  the  time  10  minutes  for

to  its  executive  director,  D.  P.  McFarland,  to  Marse  Grant,  Editor  of 
The  Biblical  Recorder,  to  Dr.  J.  C  Stokes,  Editor  of  The  Christian 
Advocate,  to  those  members  of  the  General  Assembly  and  all  others 
who  worked  against  the  liberalization  of  the  sale  and  use  of  alcoholic 
beverages  in  North  Carolina  and  for  their  success  in  defeating  bills 
that  would  have  legalized  the  sale  of  liquor  by  the  drink. 

Be  it  further  resolved  that  we  encourage  individuals  and  churches 
to  give  added  financial  support  to  the  Christian  Action  League  as  it 
seeks  to  combat  this  and  other  evils  that  are  so  prevalent  in  our  day.

Be  it  resolved  that  we  express  our  deep  appreciation  on  behalf  of

on  the  theme,  "The  Ministry  of  the  Church." 

2.  To  the  Committee  on  Arrangements  for  so  efficiently  carrying 
out  the  many  details  involved  in  coordinating  the  facilities  available 
for  the  hospitality  and  convenience  of  the  messengers  and  visitors. 
We  express  appreciation  to  all  Baptists  of  the  Fayetteville  area  and 
to  its  business  concerns  for  their  warm  and  genuine  welcome  to  all. 

3.  To  Joseph  Stroud  for  providing  for  us  a  splendid  program  of 
music  throughout  the  sessions.  We  particularly  wish  to  acknowledge 
the  outstanding  performance  of  the  choirs  of  the  seven  Baptist 
Colleges  under  the  direction  of  Mr.  Paul  Green. 

4.  To  Dr.  Page  Kelley  for  his  timely  devotional  messages.

6.  To  all  those  who  have  appeared  on  the  program  and  who  thus 
have  sought  to  advance  the  cause  of  Christ  and  who  have  helped  us 
in  the  same  pursuit. 

It  was  seconded  and  adopted.

86 


Baptist  State  Convention 


Confession  and  a  Litany  of  Commitment.  The  Convention  sang 
'Traise  to  the  Lord,  the  Almighty." 

174.  Brooks  Hays,  Director  of  Ecumenical  Institute,  W^ake  Forest 
University,  Winston-Salem,  addressed  the  Convention  on  "Baptists 
and  Other  Christians."  He  said  that  the  Ecumenical  Institute  is 
firmly  based  on  Baptist  principles  but  also  realized  that  there  has 
been  too  much  evil  released  in  the  world  for  Baptists  to  handle  it 
alone.  We  can  join  with  Protestants,  Catholics,  and  Jews  in  fighting 
prejudice  and  polarization,  "...  speaking  the  truth  in  love,"  without 
forfeiting  our  individual  freedom.  He  stressed  the  importance  of  our 
listening  to  today's  youth,  98  per  cent  of  whom  are  not  destroyers, 
but  want  to  see  major  improvements  in  our  world. 

175.  Robert  Greene,  Blowing  Rock,  newly  appointed  missionary  to 
Taiwan,  was  introduced.

serving  in  Buenos  Aires,  Argentina,  now  living  in  Wake  Forest 
while  on  furlough,  read  Acts  1:5-8  and  spoke  concerning  the  growth 
of  the  missionary  concern  and  outreach  among  Southern  Baptists. 
The  Cooperative  Program  is  such  a  beautifully  simple  plan  that  our 
people  are  often  unaware,  when  they  give,  of  the  tremendous  good 
which  is  done  by  those  gifts  around  the  world.  He  related  incidents 
on  the  mission  field  which  illustrate  the  good  which  is  done. 

177.  Joe  Burnette,  Charlotte,  Chairman  of  the  Committee  on  Place 
and  Preacher,  made  a  motion  that  Charlotte  be  the  site  for  the  1971 
Convention  with  Winston-Salem  as  the  site  for  1972  and  Asheville  in 
1973;  and  that  the  preacher  for  the  1970  Convention  be  A.  Douglas

as  found  on  pages  191-193  of  the  Annual,  and  recognized  Toby 
Druin  and  Mrs.  Herbert  Gower  of  the  staff  of  The  Biblical  Recorder. 
He  spoke  concerning  crucial  social  issues  which  we  may  expect  dur- 
ing the  coming  year. 

179.  C.  Gordon  Maddrey,  Raleigh,  Director  of  the  North  Carolina 
Baptist  Foundation,  asked  that  the  report  of  the  Foundation,  as 
found  on  pages  193-194  of  the  Annual,  be  received  as  information.  He 
pointed  out  that  the  North  Carolina  Baptist  Foundation  is  the  oldest 
such  foundation  among  Southern  Baptists,  and  spoke  concerning  its 
work. 

180.  Henry  Stroupe,  Winston-Salem,  Chairman  of  the  Historical 
Committee,  called  attention  to  the  report  of  the  committee,  as  found 
on  pages  195-196  of  the  Annual.  He  recognized  B.  E.  White,  Dur-

a  message  by  the  Convention  because  of  his  illness  (See  Item  95 
above),  died  on  November  25.  1969.  and  the  Executive  Committee

191.  The  12th  Support  Brigade  Muleteers  Chorus  of  Fort  Bragg, 
under  the  direction  of  Specialist  Olsen,  sang  "The  Battle  Hymn  of 
the  Republic,"  and  "Sit  Down,  Servant." 

192.  Frank  H.  Thomas,  Hickory,  read  from  Proverbs  3  and 
Matthew  28 : 1 1-20  and  led  in  prayer. 

193.  Thomas  Q.  Whitmire,  Fayetteville,  pastor  of  Gethsemane 
Baptist  church,  and  a  retired  U.  S.  Army  Chaplain  with  the  rank  of 
Lieutenant  Colonel,  addressed  the  Convention  on  the  subject  "The 
Church's  Ministry  to  Men  in  Service."  He  emphasized  that  becoming 
a  military  chaplain  does  not  mean  "leaving  the  ministry,"  but 
entering  upon  a  specialized  ministry.  He  spoke  of  the  rigorous  train- 
ing which  makes  the  Chaplain  a  soldier  as  well  as  a  man  of  God, 
giving  various  personal  experiences  in  this  country  and  in  five 
overseas  assignments.  He  then  described  his  work  as  a  pastor  in  a 
military  community  since  his  retirement  from  the  military  chap- 
laincy. He  offered  messengers  literature  concerning  how  to  prepare 
young  men  for  military  service  and  how  to  receive  them  when  they 
return. 

194.  President  Bowen  presented  to  the  Convention  the  officers  of 
the  Convention  and  the  wife  of  each  officer,  explaining  again  the 
absence  of  President-Elect  John  E.  Lawrence  and  Mrs.  Lawrence 
because  of  the  death  of  his  mother  yesterday.  He  expressed  the  best 
wishes  of  the  Convention  for  the  newly-elected  officers. 

195.  Joseph  O.  Stroud,  Secretary  of  the  Department  of  Church 
Music  of  the  Baptist  State  Convention,  led  the  Convention  in  singing 
"The  Church's  One  Foundation." 

196.  The  12th  Support  Brigade  Muleteers  Chorus  [See  Item  191 
above]  sang  "America,  the  Beautiful"  and  "I  Believe." 

197.  Alastair  C.  Walker,  Pastor  of  the  First  Baptist  Church  of 
Spartanburg,  South  Carolina,  addressed  the  Convention  on  the 
subject  "The  Great  Divorce  and  the  Weeping  Bride."  He  began  by 
describing,  somewhat  in  allegorical  fashion,  the  marriage  of  Johnny 
Worldly  and  Ima  Church,  the  subsequent  disenchantment  and  the 
final  divorce.  It  is  the  world  which  has  repudiated  the  church,  and 
the  church  is  pining  away.  This  marriage,  however,  was  never  meant 
to  be,  so  far  as  God  is  concerned.  Jesus  saw  an  inevitable  conflict 
between  his  church  and  the  world;  that  church's  alternative  to 
compromise  with  the  world  is  a  new  experience  of  the  Holy  Spirit. 

198.  James  Grady  Faulk,  Pineville,  pronounced  the  benediction, 
and  the  139th  annual  session  of  the  Baptist  State  Convention  was 
adjourned.

REPORT 
OF  THE 

GENERAL  BOARD 

OF  THE 

BAPTIST  STATE  CONVENTION 

OF 

NORTH  CAROLINA 

Including  Reports  of  Institutions  and  Agencies  of  the 
Convention,  Reports  of  Standing  Committees,  and 
the  Report  of  the  Woman's  Missionary  Union. 

TO  THE 

ONE-HUNDRED  THIRTY-NINTH  ANNUAL  SESSION 
CUMBERLAND  COUNTY  MEMORIAL  AUDITORIUM 
Fayetteville 
November  10-12,  1969 


I.  FOREWORD 


The  year  1969  has  been  one  of  steady  progress.  The  statistical  re- 
port of  1968  showed  3,454  churches  reporting,  or  a  net  gain  of  12 
churches.  We  reported  28,522  baptisms  which  was  a  two  per  cent 
decline  for  1968.  We  hope  that  this  figure  will  be  reversed  this  year 
because  of  the  emphasis  on  the  Crusade  of  the  Americas.  Many  good 
reports  have  been  received  concerning  revivals  and  renewed  inter- 
est in  evangelism  and  deepening  the  spiritual  life  of  our  people. 
Our  North  Carolina  Baptist  people  gave  to  their  churches  in  1968  a 
total  of  $73,493,524.  Of  this  amount,  $6,322,183  was  contributed 
through  the  Cooperative  Program  for  mission  objects  and  $5,160,046 
was  given  to  special  mission  objects  of  our  Convention. 

We  do  not  have  figures  for  this  year,  but  at  this  time,  the  Co- 
operative Program  is  7.72%  ahead  of  last  year  at  the  same  time,  and 
special  mission  objects  show  an  increase  of  9.46%.  We  are  grate- 
ful to  God  for  this  steady  growth  in  support  of  our  mission  work. 

However,  we  remind  you  of  the  cost  of  living  increase,  and  thus, 
much  of  this  increase  goes  to  cover  increased  costs.  Unless  we  con- 
stantly face  our  stewardship  responsibilities  we  will  not  be  able  to 
increase  our  mission  opportunities. 

For  the  past  several  years,  many  of  our  churches  have  been  in 
building  programs,  averaging  more  than  $15,000,000  per  year.  Be- 
cause of  increased  cost  of  both  materials  and  interest  rates,  this 
work  has  been  greatly  curtailed  in  the  past  few  months.  We  would 
urge  our  churches  to  move  slowly  in  their  plans  for  new  buildings 
at  this  time.  They  should  be  sure  of  costs  and  the  availability  of 
loans.  They  should  be  sure  they  have  the  plans  needed  for  the  future 
of  their  church.  The  Church  Planning  Department,  Rev.  Richard 
Smith,  Secretary,  would  be  glad  to  review  your  plans  and  make 
suggestions  without  cost  to  your  church. 

1970  will  be  a  very  important  time  in  the  life  of  our  churches  in 
North  Carolina.  During  this  year,  the  church  organizations  will  be 
introducing  new  plans  for  the  Sunday  School,  Church  Training 
work,  Brotherhood,  Woman's  Missionary  Union  and  Church  Music. 
New  literature  is  being  provided  and  new  grading  suggestions  are 
being  made  to  the  churches.  Our  staff  is  making  every  effort  to 
provide  leadership  for  these  changes.  They  will  work  very  closely 
with  the  Associational  Missionaries  and  associational  leaders  to  pro- 
vide clinics  and  training  sessions  for  our  church  people.  We  truly 
hope  this  will  be  a  year  of  tremendous  progress  for  our  churches, 
as  they  face  the  challenge  of  the  seventies. 

During  the  past  year,  groups  composed  of  pastors,  educational 
directors,  college  professors,  lay  men  and  women,  associational  mis- 
sionaries and  state  staff  personnel  have  been  meeting  in  the  various 
states  of  our  Convention.  They  have  been  making  suggestions  for 
the  seventies  in  the  light  of  the  trends  of  our  times  and  the  needs 
of  our  people.  These  suggestions  will  be  completed  and  reviewed  by 
a  southwide  committee.  Eventually  they  will  become  the  basis  of 


94 


Baptist  State  Convention 


our  goals  for  our  work  during  this  decade.  We  have  been  encour- 
aged by  the  dedication  of  these  groups  as  they  look  to  the  future. 

We  continue  to  have  a  restlessness  among  many  of  our  ministers. 
The  turnover  in  length  of  pastorates  is  too  great  for  the  good  of 
either  pastor  or  church.  In  many  cases,  churches  have  not  kept  their 
salaries  and  expense  items  for  their  pastors  and  staff  members  in 
line  with  the  increased  cost  of  living.  We  urge  our  church  leaders 
to  review  these  items  carefully,  so  that  you  may  not  lose  your 
pastor  or  other  workers.  This  is  not  just  a  question  of  the  dedication 
of  the  pastor  or  others.  It  is  a  very  real  question  of  living  costs, 
traveling  expense,  education  for  children  and  similar  things. 

We  are  encouraged  by  interest  in  meeting  local  needs  with  action 
groups  from  our  churches.  It  is  very  important  that  we  demonstrate 
the  spirit  of  Christ  in  our  own  personal  lives,  but  also  in  corporate 
effort  in  our  communities.  It  is  our  hope  that  our  new  Council  on 
Christian  Life  and  Public  Affairs  will  explore  areas  of  need  among 
us,  and  help  us  to  see  the  responsibility  of  the  individual  Christian 
and  the  church  to  meet  these  needs  and  face  realistically,  in  the 
spirit  of  Christ,  the  problems  of  our  day. 

I  hope  you  will  read  the  report  of  the  General  Board  and  the  re- 
ports of  the  various  departments  of  our  work.  We  have  a  talented 
and  dedicated  staff  who  work  hard  at  providing  help  and  services 
for  the  churches  of  our  Convention.  Through  the  Division  of  Mis- 
sions we  are  seeking  to  extend  the  arm  of  the  churches  to  areas  such 
as  resorts,  military  centers,  other  races  and  special  needs  in  the 
open  country  and  the  crowded  cities. 

On  February  8  of  this  year,  I  was  married  to  Mrs.  Charles  Mad- 
dry  of  Richmond,  Virginia.  The  late  Rev.  Charles  Maddry  was  for- 
merly pastor  of  First  Baptist  Church  of  Wilmington,  North  Carolina 
and  the  Temple  Baptist  Church  of  Durham,  North  Carolina  before 
going  to  First  Baptist  Church  of  Charlottesville,  Virginia.  Following 
his  death  in  1963,  Mrs.  Maddry  was  employed  by  the  Foreign  Mis- 
sion Board  in  Richmond,  Virginia.  I  am  grateful  indeed  for  God's 
leadership  in  our  marriage  and  we  pledge  to  you  our  best  in  the 
years  ahead.  Thank  you  for  your  love  and  support  during  these 
six  years.  W.  Perry  Crouch 

II.  GENERAL  BOARD  REPORT  AND  RECOMMENDATIONS 

James  Cammack 
The  work  of  our  General  Board  began  with  our  January  organi- 
zational meeting  at  Meredith  College  in  Raleigh.  At  that  time  we 
welcomed  our  new  members,  and  reviewed  our  work  for  the  coming 
year.  The  committees  elected  their  chairmen,  and  these  chairmen, 
plus  the  President  and  Vice  Presidents  of  the  Convention,  the  Presi- 
dent of  the  General  Board  and  five  members-at-large  composed 
the  Executive  Committee.  The  names  of  the  Executive  Committee 
members  for  1969  are  as  follows: 

James  Cammack,  President,  General  Board

Memhers-at-large 

E.  J.  Prevatte 
Edison  Hill 
Woodrow  Hill 
Roger  Jackson 
Bill  Wilson 

At  this  first  meeting  of  1969,  Mr.  Spencer,  our  Comptroller,  an- 
nounced that  we  had  received  $6,322,183  through  the  Cooperative 
Program  during  1968,  and  $5,160,046  for  special  mission  objects  or 
a  total  of  $11,482,229  for  our  Baptist  work  in  North  Carolina  and 
around  the  world  for  the  year  of  1968.  This  is  a  sizable  sum  of 
money,  but  actually  it  is  just  $11.42  per  capita  for  North  Carolina 
Baptists  during  1968.  Actually  our  churches  only  sent  14.52  per 
cent  of  their  total  receipts  for  mission  work  outside  of  their  own 
churches  and  associations.  However,  this  does  represent  6.14  per 
cent  increase  over  the  missions  offerings  of  the  previous  year. 

Our  attention  was  called  to  the  excellent  State  Missions  Offer- 
ing of  last  year  which  had  reached  a  total  of  $220,016.65,  the  larg- 
est in  the  history  of  our  Convention.  We  were  reminded  of  our 
previous  commitments  to  use  $170,000  for  our  basic  State  Mission 
work,  20  per  cent,  or  $44,083.33  for  the  Fruitland  Administration 
Building,  leaving  $16,013.32  for  special  State  Mission  projects.  It 
was  agreed  to  use  $4,000  of  this  amount  to  meet  additional  re- 
quests for  pastoral  aid  in  rural  areas,  $1,000  for  additional  aid  for 
associational  missionaries,  $4,500  for  work  in  the  Military  Centers 
and  the  balance  for  special  emergency  requests  during  the  year. 

We  also  received  a  request  from  the  Baptist  Hospital  to  borrow 
$400,000  to  meet  an  emergency  in  operation,  with  the  understand- 
ing that  this  would  be  amortized  in  1969  funds  or  balance  in  next 
year's  budget.  This  is  within  the  provision  of  our  Constitution, 
and  the  request  was  granted. 

The  Missions  Committee  brought  their  report  of  requests  for  pas- 
toral aid  amounting  to  $94,737  and  $47,000  for  church  lots.  This 
amount  covers  requests  from  126  churches  and  44  associations. 
Some  additional  requests  during  the  year  were  handled  by  the  Ex- 
ecutive Committee. 


96 


Baptist  State  Convention 


We  would  like  to  group  the  balance  of  our  report  according  to 
subjects. 

I.  PROMOTIONAL  EMPHASES 

1.  Stewardship 

During  the  year  regional  clinics  were  held  in  various  parts  of  our 
state. 

Associational  Stewardship  representatives  and  some  pastors  were 
invited  to  be  present.  The  subjects  discussed  were  stewardship 
literature  available,  Cooperative  Program  promotion,  and  other 
ideas  that  would  stimulate  the  giving  habits  of  our  people. 

Stewardship  revivals  and  local  church  and  associational  clinics 
were  held  all  during  the  year.  Our  people  continue  to  increase  their 
giving  through  the  Cooperative  Program. 

2.  Church  Programs 

Nine  departments  of  work  are  constantly  seeking  to  serve  the 
churches  of  our  Convention.  A  dedicated  staff  of  workers  have 
been  in  every  association  and  in  hundreds  of  churches  during  the 
past  year.  We  hope  you  will  read  their  reports  carefully. 

The  newest  item  is  the  formation  of  a  Youth  Committee,  com- 
posed of  staff  members  who  work  with  young  people  in  the  churches. 
Dr.  Brooks,  Division  Director,  serves  as  Chairman.  Several  young 
people  and  several  youth  directors  in  local  churches  will  be  added 
to  the  committee.  It  will  be  their  purpose  and  responsibility  to 
create  a  youth  program  for  our  churches.  Beginning  January  1, 
1970,  the  Reverend  Davis  Bowen  will  be  giving  his  full  time  to 
this  work.  We  believe  this  is  one  of  the  most  significant  steps  taken 
in  several  years  and  its  promotion  will  cross  departmental  lines. 
Definite  materials  and  suggestions  should  be  available  early  next 
year.  One  of  the  most  effective  phases  of  our  work  during  the  year 
was  the  Baptist  Youth  Corps.  These  young  people  from  our  Baptist 
colleges  served  in  many  local  churches  during  the  summer.  The 
Baptist  Student  Union  had  two  groups  of  young  people  working  in 
various  areas  of  our  state.  Other  young  people  served  with  our 
Home  or  Foreign  Mission  Boards,  or  on  the  staff  of  one  of  our 
assemblies  or  camps.  We  are  grateful  for  the  fine  work  of  these 
young  people. 

We  believe  our  North  Carolina  Baptist  Assembly  at  Caswell  and 
our  Camps  and  Retreats  held  at  CaRAway  have  been  one  of  the 
strongest  phases  of  our  educational  programs  for  leadership  in  our 
churches.  We  continue  to  improve  these  facilities  and  to  make 
them  available  to  churches  and  associational  groups  during  the  nine 
months  between  the  summer  programs.  The  Fruitland  Camp  will 
be  used  in  the  future  largely  as  a  leadership  training  center  during 
the  summer  months.  Of  course,  it  is  the  home  of  the  Fruitland 
Bible  Institute  during  the  winter  months. 

One  Department  has  changed  its  name  during  the  year.  Program 
Services  was  a  Department  that  handled  TV,  Radio  work  and  the 
audio-visual  aids  materials  for  the  churches.  It  also  handled  news 


OF  North  Carolina 


97 


service  and  printing  for  various  departments.  However,  the  name 
was  often  confused  with  the  name  of  the  Division  of  Church  Pro- 
grams. Thus  it  seemed  wise  to  change  the  name  to  "Department 
of  Communications."  Our  Departments  sponsoring  the  educational 
work  of  our  churches  such  as,  WMU,  Brotherhood,  Sunday  School, 
Church  Training  and  Music  face  a  busy  year  in  1970,  as  they  fur- 
nish guidance  for  our  church  leaders  in  charge  of  organizational 
set-up,  literature  and  grading  that  has  been  designed  by  our  South- 
wide  leadership.  We  hope  you  will  read  their  reports  carefully. 

3.  Missions 

Our  Missions  Division  has  strengthened  their  work,  adding  pilot 
projects  in  City  Missions  in  the  areas  around  Gastonia,  Fayetteville, 
Durham,  Winston-Salem  and  Raleigh.  They  have  also  begun  some 
work  with  migrants  and  had  some  excellent  work  in  our  growing 
resort  areas.  Of  course,  they  continue  to  work  with  churches  need- 
ing aid  for  pastoral  support  and  helping  churches  and  associations 
in  the  purchase  of  new  lots.  This  division  provides  aid  for  three 
fourths  of  the  associations  that  have  full-time  missionaries  or  super- 
intendents of  their  work. 

The  newest  project  in  the  Missions  Division  is  the  beginning  of  a 
Department  of  Chaplaincy  Ministry,  supported  jointly  by  the  Home 
Mission  Board  and  our  State  Mission  Program.  The  Secretary  of 
this  department  will  stay  in  close  touch  with  military  chaplains 
in  our  State  and  encourage  churches  to  stay  in  touch  with  young 
men  in  the  military  service.  He  will  also  seek  to  promote  the  need 
for  chaplains  in  hospitals  throughout  the  state,  and  the  opportunity 
for  Industrial  chaplains.  He  will  work  in  close  relationship  with  the 
Pastoral  Care  School  where  many  chaplains  are  trained.  He  would 
be  the  correlating  force  in  keeping  Baptist,  military,  hospital  and 
industrial  chaplains  vitally  related  to  our  Convention  and  would 
lead  in  providing  seminars  and  conferences  for  them.  It  is  our  hope 
that  this  place  may  be  filled  by  January  1,  1970. 

4.  Evangelism 

The  Crusade  of  the  Americas  was  stressed  during  the  first  part 
of  1969  and  many  churches  reported  excellent  revival  meetings.  We 
hope  the  statistics  for  1969  will  indicate  an  increase  in  baptisms 
over  1968. 

Dr.  Julian  Hopkins  will  retire  December  31,  1969  after  13  years 
as  Director  of  the  Division  of  Evangelism.  We  wish  him  many  good 
years  to  serve  our  Lord  as  a  retired  minister. 

Rev.  W.  C.  Lamb  has  already  been  elected  to  succeed  Dr.  Hop- 
kins, and  has  already  announced  many  of  the  speakers  for  the 
annual  Evangelistic  Conference  to  be  held  in  Greensboro,  Febru- 
ary 2,  3,  4,  1970.  He  is  also  planning  the  Evangelism  Research  In- 
stitute which  will  be  held  at  Southeastern  Seminary,  October  5-6, 
1970. 

5.  Christian  Life  and  Public  Affairs 

This  Council,  in  its  first  year  of  operation,  has  had  three  meet- 
ings, and  has  had  a  number  of  papers  prepared  and  discussed  that 


7 


98 


Baptist  State  Convention 


have  to  do  with  the  Christian  way  of  life.  All  of  this  has  been 
done  without  a  full  time  director.  Mr.  Ed  Brandon,  a  layman,  has 
rendered  splendid  leadership  for  this  new  Council.  Please  read  their 
report  carefully. 

In  keeping  with  the  recommendation  presented  to  the  Convention 
last  year,  the  General  Board  has  provided  means  in  the  budget  to 
secure  a  full-time  Director  by  July  1,  1970. 

6.  Council  on  Christian  Higher  Education 

The  Council  on  Christian  Higher  Education  has  had  regular 
meetings  during  the  year  and  their  report  will  be  found  in  the 
book  of  reports.  This  Council,  which  includes  a  committee  of  the 
General  Board,  provides  the  correlation  between  the  Baptist  Colleges 
and  the  other  areas  of  our  Baptist  work.  The  chairman  of  this 
Council  serves  on  the  Executive  Committee  of  the  General  Board. 
This  report  will  contain  some  recommendations  concerning  the 
colleges. 

7.  Council  on  Christian  Social  Service 

This  Council  meets  at  least  once  per  year.  Three  sub-committees 
of  the  General  Board  meet  with  the  leadership  of  the  Social  Service 
Institutions  to  hear  reports  and  study  plans  for  them.  The  report 
of  these  institutions  are  included  in  the  reports.  We  note  particu- 
larly the  establishment  of  a  new  Children's  Home  in  Western 
North  Carolina  near  Waynesville  and  the  beginning  of  a  new  home 
for  unwed  mothers  at  Asheville.  Both  of  these  are  a  part  of  the 
Baptist  Children's  Homes  of  North  Carolina,  and  are  mentioned 
in  their  report. 

II.  PERSONNEL  CHANGES 

We  have  had  a  number  of  personnel  changes,  as  is  always  true 
in  a  staff  the  size  of  ours.  One  of  these,  Dr.  Julian  Hopkins,  has 
reached  the  automatic  retirement  age.  Several  of  the  others  are  due 
to  resignations.  Some  are  new  places,  such  as  Secretary  of  Chap- 
laincy Ministry  and  Director  of  Youth  Work  in  the  Church  Training

III.  PROPERTY  CHANGES 

1.  New  Administration  Building  at  Fruitland 

For  several  years  we  have  been  working  toward  a  new  Ad- 
ministration and  Library  Building  for  Fruitland  Baptist  Bible  In- 
stitute. The  building  was  dedicated  in  a  special  service  on  Novem- 
ber 21,  1968,  although  the  building  was  not  completed  and  occupied 
until  March  of  this  year.  The  building  provides  office  space  for  the 
Director,  the  Dean  and  office  secretaries  as  well  as  a  large  con- 
ference room  on  the  first  floor.  The  ground  floor  contains  the  book 
store,  snack  shop,  and  lounge  area.  The  third  floor  contains  the 
library,  which  now  numbers  several  thousand  volumes.  This  build- 
ing has  added  much  to  the  work  of  Fruitland  Bible  Institute.  This 
Institute  provides  training  for  ministers  who  have  not  been  able  to 
attend  college  or  seminary,  and  has  a  maximum  enrollment  of  about 
150  per  session.  They  have  had  a  waiting  list  for  sometime. 

2.  Truett  Home  Furnished 

Several  years  ago  the  Baptist  State  Convention  acquired  the 
home-place  of  Dr.  George  W.  Truett  as  a  memorial.  However,  the 
house  had  never  been  furnished.  During  this  year  a  committee  of 
ladies  from  First  Baptist  Church  of  Asheville  completed  the  task  of 
furnishing  this  house  with  furniture  of  the  period.  A  dedication 
service  was  held  May  6,  of  this  year,  and  the  house  opened  to  the 
public.  Since  that  time  409  people  have  visited  the  home.  These 
people  have  come  from  several  states  of  our  Convention.  We  are 
very  grateful  to  this  fine  group  of  women  that  helped  us  finish 
this  work  and  open  the  memorial  to  the  public.  This  home  is  lo- 
cated near  Hayes ville,  N.  C. 

3.  Water  Supply  at  Caswell 

Since  the  purchase  of  the  property  at  Fort  Caswell  as  the  loca- 
tion of  our  North  Carolina  Baptist  Assembly,  we  have  purchased 
water  from  the  Powell  Family  who  owned  and  operated  deep  wells 


I 


100 


Baptist  State  Convention 


some  three  miles  from  the  Assembly  grounds.  We  were  able  to  dig 
shallow  wells  on  the  grounds,  but  they  did  not  supply  enough 
water  to  take  care  of  the  Assembly. 

Two  or  three  times  in  previous  years  the  water  supply  had  been 
offered  for  sale  to  the  Convention,  but  the  price  seemed  to  be  too 
high.  However,  another  offer  was  made  in  March  of  this  year,  and 
after  some  negotiations,  the  property  was  purchased  for  $22,500. 
This  title  includes  some  four  acres  of  land,  water  wells,  pumps 
and  underground  water  lines  and  right-of-ways.  It  also  includes 
the  responsibility  of  furnishing  water  to  about  40  users  along  the 
beach,  including  the  U.  S.  Coast  Guard.  Income  from  the  users  will 
help  defray  the  cost  of  the  water  supply.  A  separate  non-profit 
corporation  has  been  set  up  to  handle  the  property  and  the  water 
supply.  Annual  reports  will  be  made  to  the  Convention. 

4.  Camp  Mimdo  Vista 

Two  years  ago  Woman's  Missionary  Union  requested  the  privilege 
of  borrowing  $250,000  to  finance  the  construction  of  a  camp  for 
girls.  They  also  requested  the  privilege  of  building  the  camp  on 
property  owned  by  the  Convention  at  CaRAway.  Both  requests  were 
granted  and  most  of  the  camp  was  completed  in  time  for  the  opera- 
tion of  the  Camp  this  summer.  The  work  was  supervised  by  Mr. 
Bill  Jackson  with  the  help  of  Mr.  Earl  Underwood,  of  our  staff, 
and  thus  costs  of  construction  were  kept  low.  However,  materials 
have  advanced  so  rapidly  that  the  final  costs  of  the  camp  ran 
more  than  the  women  had  expected,  or  a  total  of  $390,317.07.  They 
have  on  hand,  or  will  have  by  the  end  of  this  year,  money  sufficient 
to  reduce  the  debt  to  about  $50,000  (including  the  $250,000  loan). 
The  General  Board  has  been  able  to  carry  this  $50,000  in  its  General 
Fund.  The  General  Board  has  agreed  to  this  plan  and  Woman's 
Missionary  Union  is  making  plans  to  raise  additional  funds  in  the 
near  future  to  speed  the  liquidation  of  this  debt. 

On  the  credit  side.  Camp  Mundo  Vista  operated  at  capacity  every 
week  during  the  summer,  with  a  total  of  about  1,600  girls  attend- 
ing. The  Camp  was  able  to  operate  on  its  own  fees  during  the  sum- 
mer. Woman's  Missionary  Union  of  North  Carolina  is  to  be  com- 
mended on  the  work  of  Camp  Mundo  Vista. 

6.  Two  New  Operations  hy  North  Carolina  Children's  Homes 
Mention  has  already  been  made  of  the  new  Children's  Home  un- 
der construction  near  Waynesville  and  the  New  Home  for  unwed 
mothers  to  be  opened  at  Asheville.  (See  report  of  North  Carolina 
Baptist  Children's  Homes.) 

IV.  DEATHS 

We  have  had  no  deaths  among  our  staff  this  year. 

We  have  suffered  the  loss  of  the  Reverend  Gilmer  Cross,  who 
served  on  the  General  Board  for  four  years,  and  as  President  of 
the  General  Board  and  its  Executive  Committee  for  two  years. 
Special  memorial  services  were  held  for  him  at  the  July  meeting 
of  the  Board. 

Two  members  of  our  General  Board  died  during  the  year : 


OF  North  Carolina 


101 


The  Reverend  A.  Z.  Jamerson,  pastor  of  the  Bolen's  Creek  Bap- 
tist Church,  Yancey  Association  and 

Mr.  W.  C.  Hopkins,  layman,  from  the  Beulah  Association. 

V.  RECOMMENDATIONS 

1.  Recommendation  concerning  proposed  Cooperative  Program 
budget  for  1970 

The  Executive  Committee  appointed  a  Budget  Committee  in  the 
May  meeting,  and  they  began  their  work  in  June.  Every  effort  was 
made  to  hear  any  and  all  representatives  of  agencies,  institutions 
of  the  General  Board  program  who  wanted  to  discuss  their  needs 

This  committee  carefully  reviewed  the  anticipated  receipts  for 
1969  and  prayed  for  guidance  as  goals  were  set  for  1970. 

Upon  the  recommendation  of  the  Budget  Committee,  the  Execu- 
tive Committee,  and  the  General  Board  we  now  present  to  you  for 
your  consideration  the  proposed  budget  for  1970. 

From  anticipated  income  of  $7,000,000  through  the  Cooperative 
Program  we  recommend  that  33.34  percent  be  allocated  to  the 
Southern  Baptist  Convention,  25.60  percent  to  Christian  Higher 
Education,  11.60  percent  to  Christian  Social  Services  (Hospital, 
Children's  Homes,  and  Homes  for  Aging),  and  29.46  percent  to 
State  Missions  (General  Board  Programs) . 

An  overall  goal  of  $7,200,000  is  proposed  and  from  the  income 
in  excess  of  the  base  budget  of  $7,000,000  we  recommend  the  fol- 
lowing allocation  of  funds:  33.34  percent  to  the  Southern  Con- 
vention, 25.6  percent  to  Christian  Higher  Education,  11.6  percent 
to  Christian  Social  Services,  and  29.46  percent  to  State  Missions 
(General  Board  Programs) .

3.  Chowan  College  to  Borrow 

We  recommend  that  the  request  of  Chowan  College  to  borrow 
$400,000  to  complete  a  science-engineering  facility  begun  last  year 
be  granted. 

Whereas,  the  Board  of  Trustees  of  Chowan  College  finds  it  ad- 
visable and  necessary,  in  order  that  such  institution  should  best 
carry  on  its  work  to  serve  a  student  body  of  approximately  1,350- 
1,500,  to  borrow  the  sum  of  FOUR  HUNDRED  THOUSAND  DOL- 
LARS ($400,000.00)  to  be  used  for  purposes  of  construction  of  a 
new  science-engineering  facility  for  said  college,  and 


Whereas,  it  is  the  opinion  of  the  said  Board  of  Trustees  that  it  will 


112 


Baptist  State  Convention 


have  funds  coming  to  it  for  capital  purposes  which  will  be  sufficient 
to  liquidate  said  loan  over  a  period  not  in  excess  of  forty  (40) 
years,  and 

Whereas,  it  is  anticipated  by  Chowan  College  that  due  to  the 
construction  schedule  of  said  building  and  the  repayment  schedule 
of  loans  now  outstanding  that  said  college  will  not  owe  at  any  time, 
including  self -liquidating  loans,  a  sum  in  excess  of  THREE  MILLION 
NINE  HUNDRED  FIFTY  THOUSAND  DOLLARS  ($3,950,000.00). 

Now,  THEREFORE,  BE  IT  RESOLVED  by  the  Board  of  Trustees  of 
Chowan  College : 

1.  That  Chowan  College  borrow  a  sum  not  in  excess  of  FOUR 
HUNDRED  THOUSAND  DOLLARS  ($400,000.00)  to  be  used  for 
the  purpose  of  constructing  a  new  science-engineering  building  at 
said  institution. 

2.  That  the  sum  actually  borrowed,  together  with  the  interest 
thereon,  shall  be  repaid  over  a  period  not  in  excess  of  forty  (40) 
years,  the  payment  of  principal  and  interest  be  made  in  annual, 
quarterly  or  monthly  installments. 

3.  That  the  proper  officers  of  Chowan  College  be  and  they  are 
hereby  authorized  and  empowered  to  execute,  or  cause  to  be  exe- 
cuted, in  the  name  of  said  college,  a  note  or  notes  and-or  bonds 
evidencing  an  indebtedness  incurred  under  the  authority  of  this 
Resolution  and  also  to  execute  or  cause  to  be  executed,  in  the 
name  of  said  college,  a  mortgage  or  mortgages  and-or  deed  of 
trust  or  deeds  of  trust  upon  the  lands  on  which  said  new  science- 
engineering  building  shall  be  erected,  together  with  the  approaches 
thereto,  provided,  however,  that  such  mortgage  or  deed  of  trust 
shall  not  in  any  way  encumber  any  other  property  owned  by 
Chowan  College. 

4.  That  no  part  of  the  indebtedness  which  may  be  incurred  by 
Chowan  College  under  the  authority  of  this  Resolution  shall  in  any 
respect  be  deemed  or  held  to  be  an  indebtedness  or  obligation  of 
the  Baptist  State  Convention  of  North  Carolina,  and  neither  the 
Baptist  State  Convention  of  North  Carolina  nor  its  General  Board 
shall  assume  any  responsibility  whatever  for  the  repayment  of 
such  loan  or  any  interest  thereon. 

5.  That  the  Baptist  State  Convention  of  North  Carolina  at  its 
next  regular  session  be  requested  to  authorize  Chowan  College  to 
borrow  not  in  excess  of  the  sum  above  mentioned  upon  the  terms 
and  for  the  purpose  herein  set  out. 

4.  Gardner-Wehh  College  Requests  Charter  Change 

We  recommend  that  the  request  of  Gardner- W^ebb  College  to 
change  their  Charter  allowing  them  to  change  the  name  from 
Junior  College  to  Senior  College  and,  other  minor  changes,  be

My  Commission  Expires : 


[Note :  The  Convention  agreed  by  common  consent  to  insert  here  a 
statement  to  the  effect  that  "...  there  would  be  added  satisfactory 
provision  for  the  election  of  Trustees  by  the  Baptist  State  Con- 
vention" (See  Item  112  of  the  Proceedings) — LJB.] 

5.  Gardner-Wehb  to  Borrow 

We  recommend  that  the  request  of  Gardner-Webb  College  to  bor- 
row $400,000  for  a  dormitory  be  approved. 

Gardner-Webb  College  is  in  the  process  of  adding  the  Junior 
and  Senior  Years  and  in  order  to  meet  the  increased  demand  for 
on-campus  housing  is  finding  it  necessary  to  add  additional  fa- 
cilities. Therefore,  the  Trustees  of  the  College  present  the  follow- 
ing resolution  to  the  Baptist  State  Convention  of  North  Carolina. 

Whereas,  Gardner-Webb  College  added  the  Junior  Class  in  the  fall 
of  1969  and  will  be  adding  the  Senior  Class  in  the  fall  of  1970,  and 

Whereas,  There  are  approximately  200  students  living  in  private 
homes,  and 

Whereas,  the  college  needs  additional  dormitory  facilities  to  meet 
the  increased  demand  for  on-campus  housing 

Now,  therefore,  be  it  resolved  by  the  Baptist  State  Conven- 
tion of  North  Carolina  in  session  at  Fayetteville,  North  Carolina, 
November  10-12,  1969 

1.  That  the  Board  of  Trustees  of  Gardner-Webb  College  be  em- 
powered by  the  Baptist  State  Convention  of  North  Carolina  to 


OF  North  Carolina 


117 


borrow  a  maximum  of  $400,000  (four  hundred  thousand  dollars) 
for  the  construction  of  residence  hall  facilities. 

2.  That  it  is  the  intention  of  the  Board  of  Trustees  of  Gardner- 
Webb  College  to  build  within  their  ability  to  pay  without  reducing 
the  efficiency  of  the  educational  program. 

3.  That  repayment  of  the  loan  be  made  as  soon  as  possible  from 
the  income  from  the  rent  of  rooms  in  the  residence  hall. 

4.  That  no  part  of  any  indebtedness  which  may  be  incurred  by 
Gardner- Webb  College  under  the  authority  of  this  Resolution  shall 
in  any  respect  be  deemed  or  held  to  be  the  indebtedness  or  obli- 
gation of  the  Baptist  State  Convention  of  North  Carolina,  nor  shall 
the  General  Board  assume  any  responsibility  whatever  for  the  re- 
payment of  such  loan  or  interest  thereon. 

6.  Change  of  General  Board  July  Meeting  date  for  1970 

Because  of  the  meeting  of  the  Baptist  World  Alliance  next  sum- 
mer involving  members  of  the  Staff  and  General  Board,  we  recom- 
mend that  the  statement  in  Article  IV,  section  B,  1  of  the  By-laws, 
designating  the  time  for  the  General  Board  to  meet  in  July,  be 
suspended  for  one  year,  and  that  the  date  for  the  General  Board  to 
meet  be  set  at  June  23-24,  1970  instead  of  July  14-15,  1970.  This 
recommendation  to  apply  for  the  year  of  1970  only. 

[Note:  This  was  reworded  before  adoption  by  the  Convention, 
by  substituting  "changed"  in  place  of  "suspended  for  one  year," 
and  by  substituting  "in  the  month  of  June"  in  place  of  all  references 
to  dates  (See  Item  114  of  the  Proceedings) — LJB.] 

7.  Recommendation  Concerning  Traffic  Safety 

In  view  of  the  statement  on  traffic  safety  issued  by  Governor 
Robert  W.  Scott  on  October  8,  1969  and  in  view  of  the  effort  of  the 
Department  of  Motor  Vehicles  to  promote  "Traffic  Safety  Sunday" 
in  the  churches  in  North  Carolina,  November  23,  1969, 

We,  therefore,  recommend  to  our  Baptist  churches  of  the  Baptist 
State  Convention  of  North  Carolina,  that  they  join  in  this  program 
of  traffic  safety  on  November  23,  1969,  and  urge  the  members  of 
these  churches  to  use  every  worthy  method  to  promote  the  concept 
of  traffic  safety  in  their  community  and  throughout  our  state. 

[Note:  The  Convention  amended  this  by  adding  a  statement 
of  appreciation  to  Governor  Scott  and  to  Joe  Garrett  of  the  De- 
partment of  Motor  Vehicles  (See  Item  116  of  the  Proceedings) 
—LJB.] 

STATEMENT 
By 

GOVERNOR  ROBERT  W.  SCOTT 

The  rising  toll  of  deaths  and  injuries  on  the  streets  and  highways 
of  North  Carolina  should  be  a  matter  of  urgent  concern  to  all  North 
Carolinians.  It  should  especially  concern  the  religious  leaders  of 
our  State  who,  by  the  very  nature  of  their  responsibilities,  deal 
almost  daily  with  the  tragic  aftermath  of  highway  collisions. 


118 


Baptist  State  Convention 


The  clergyman  knows  well  the  tragedy  of  the  sudden  and,  in 
most  instances,  needless  loss  of  a  father,  a  mother,  a  child,  or  other 
loved  ones  in  a  traffic  collision.  He  is  all  too  frequently  called 
upon  to  console  a  family  with  words  that  he  knows  will  be  inade- 
quate to  compensate  for  the  family's  overpowering  grief. 

I  am  therefore  calling  on  all  the  pastors,  priests  and  rabbis  of 
North  Carolina  to  devote  one  day  of  worship  to  the  instruction  of 
their  congregations  in  the  relationship  between  religious  responsi- 
bility and  obedience  to  the  traffic  laws  that  govern  and  promote 
highway  safety  in  North  Carolina. 

Toward  this  end,  I  am  designating  Sunday,  November  23,  1969, 
as  TRAFFIC  SAFETY  SUNDAY  IN  THE  CHURCHES  OF  NORTH 
CAROLINA  and  am  urging  that  all  clergymen  take  advantage  of 
this  opportunity  to  make  a  significant  contribution  to  the  family 
life  and  general  welfare  of  our  State  and  to  the  cause  of  highway 
safety. 

8.  Mars  Hill  College  Request  for  Charter  Change 

We  recommend  that  the  request  of  Mars  Hill  College  to  change 
their  Charter  allowing  them  to  increase  their  number  of  Trustees 
be  granted. 

Be  it  resolved  by  the  Board  of  Trustees  of 
Mars  Hill  College 

1.  That  the  Charter  of  Mars  Hill  College  is  hereby  amended  by 
rewriting  a  portion  of  Section  3  of  the  said  Charter  to  read  as 
follows : 

"3.  That  the  Board  of  Trustees  shall  consist  of  thirty-six  members 
who  shall  be  divided  into  four  classes  consisting  of  nine  trustees  to 
a  class.  At  the  annual  session  of  the  Convention  in  1969  the  ad- 
ditional eight  trustees  shall  be  elected  by  the  Convention,  two  of 
whom  shall  be  elected  to  serve  a  one-year-term,  two  for  a  two- 
year  term,  two  for  a  three-year  term  and  two  for  a  four-year  term." 

2.  That  this  resolution  shall  become  effective  upon  approval  of  the 
Baptist  State  Convention  of  North  Carolina  or  its  General  Board, 
in  which  event  the  proper  officers  of  Mars  Hill  College  are  author- 
ized and  directed  to  execute  and  file  in  the  office  of  the  Secretary 
of  the  State  of  North  Carolina  a  Certificate  of  Amendment  em- 
bodying the  aforesaid  changes  in  the  Charter  of  Mars  Hill  College. 
This  10th  Day  of  December,  1968. 

W.  R.  Chambers,  Chairman 
Board  of  Trustees  Mars  Hill  College 

9.  Wake  Forest  University  Request  to  Borrow 

We  recommend  that  the  request  of  Wake  Forest  University  to  bor- 
row two  million,  two  hundred  fifty  thousand  dollars  to  erect  a 
dormitory  for  women  be  granted. 

Whereas,  the  Board  of  Trustees  of  Wake  Forest  University 
finds  it  advisable  and  necessary  to  provide  additional  dormitory 
space  for  women  which  will  cost  approximately  two  and  a  quarter 
million  dollars,  and 


OF  North  Carolina 


119 


Whereas,  the  Board  of  Trustees  on  February  9,  1968,  authorized 
the  officers  of  the  University  to  initiate  any  action  necessary  and 
proper  to  seek  approval  of  the  Baptist  State  Convention  of  North 
Carolina  for  the  negotiation  of  loans  related  to  said  dormitories. 

Now  THEREFORE,  BE  IT  RESOLVED  by  the  Board  of  Trustees  of 
Wake  Forest  University : 

1.  That  Wake  Forest  University  borrow  a  sum  not  in  excess  of 
two  and  a  quarter  million  dollars  to  be  used  for  the  purpose  of 
constructing  new  dormitories  for  women. 

2.  That  the  sums  actually  borrowed,  together  with  the  interest 
thereon,  shall  be  repaid  over  a  period  not  in  excess  of  40  years, 
the  payment  of  principal  and  interest  to  be  made  in  annual,  monthly 
or  quarterly  installments. 

3.  That  no  part  of  the  indebtedness  which  may  be  incurred  by 
Wake  Forest  University  under  the  authority  of  this  Resolution 
shall  in  any  respect  be  deemed  or  held  to  be  an  indebtedness  or 
obligation  of  the  Baptist  State  Convention  of  North  Carolina  nor 
its  General  Board  shall  assume  any  responsibility  whatever  for 
the  repayment  of  such  loan  or  any  interest  thereon. 

4.  That  the  Baptist  State  Convention  of  North  Carolina  at  its 
next  regular  session  be  requested  to  authorize  Wake  Forest  Uni- 
versity to  borrow  not  in  excess  of  the  sum  above  mentioned  upon 
the  terms  and  for  the  purpose  herein  set  out.

A.  DIVISION  OF  BUSINESS  MANAGEMENT 
See  Auditor's  Report  in  the  back  of  the  Annual) 
B.  DIVISION  OF  MISSIONS 

Howard  J.  Ford,  Director 

We  feel  we  have  come  to  the  end  of  a  good  year  in  the  Division 
of  Missions.  The  Secretaries  of  the  five  departments  within  the  di- 
vision will  be  reporting  on  following  pages  growth  and  develop- 
ment within  the  scope  of  each  department.  Plans  have  been  ap- 
proved by  the  General  Board  to  add  a  Department  of  Chaplaincy 
Ministry  as  soon  as  the  right  man  can  be  found.  Work  has  gone 
forward  steadily  in  Special  Missions  areas  assigned  to  the  Division 
of  Missions. 

We  regret  the  resignation  of  the  Reverend  A.  T.  Robertson  as 
part-time  Chaplain  at  McCain  due  to  ill  health.  He  has  been  re- 
placed by  the  Reverend  Ernest  A.  Stiles,  pastor  of  Vass  Baptist 
Church.  His  report,  along  with  the  other  part-time  Institutional 
Chaplains,  will  follow. 

We  are  happy  to  report  the  election  of  the  following  men  as 
Associational  Superintendents  of  Missions  during  the  past  year: 
Rev.  Guthrie  Colvard,  Carolina  Association;  Rev.  Amos  Lyon,  Stone 
Mountain;  Rev.  A.  R.  Waisner,  Brunswick;  Rev.  Daniel  F.  Page, 
Flat  River;  Rev.  J.  W.  Myers,  Macon  Association  (Part-time);  Mr. 
Everette  Haney,  New  Found  (Part-time);  Rev.  Max  G.  Reece, 
Sandy  Creek  (Part-time);  Rev.  E.  B.  Lindsay,  Tennessee  River  and 
Mrs.  David  Roberts,  French  Broad  (Interim).  The  Reverend 
Wayne  E.  Sorrells  came  in  January  as  Associational  Missionary  in 
the  Transylvania,  but  has  now  resigned  in  order  to  go  to  the  For- 
eign Mission  field. 

We  are  sorry  to  have  the  following  missionaries  to  resign  during 
the  year:  Rev.  J.  T.  Pardue,  Alleghany;  Rev.  David  B.  Roberts, 
French  Broad  (Retired);  Rev.  Howard  Willis,  Macon;  Mr.  Bill 
Gillespie  (Part-time)  New  Found;  Rev.  Henry  L.  Register  (Re- 
tired) Brunswick;  and  the  Reverend  Bill  Pruitt,  Stone  Mountain.

The  capable  Missionary  of  the  Union  Association,  layman  Arch 
Cree,  has  announced  his  retirement  at  the  end  of  1969. 

During  the  year  we  have  had  a  continuing  emphasis  on  coopera- 
tion of  the  local  church,  the  local  Baptist  Association,  the  Baptist 
State  Convention,  and  the  Home  and  Foreign  Mission  Boards  of  the 
Southern  Baptist  Convention  in  sharing  the  Gospel  of  Christ  with 
a  lost  world.  In  order  to  emphasize  this  essential  cooperation  and 
give  attention  to  our  World  Mission  task,  four  World  Missions  Ral- 
lies were  held  in  our  state.  These  Rallies  were  held  in  Hayes  Barton 
Baptist  Church,  Raleigh,  September  15;  First  Baptist  Church, 
Greensboro,  September  16;  First  Baptist  Church,  Charlotte,  Septem- 
ber 18;  and  First  Baptist  Church,  Morganton,  September  19.  An 
estimated  2,250  people  listened  to  messages  by  Drs.  Baker  James 
Cauthen,  Arthur  B,  Rutledge,  W.  Perry  Crouch  and  Howard  J.  Ford. 

The  Division  of  Missions  continues  the  responsibility  of  promoting 
and  correlating  World  Missions  Conferences  (Schools  of  Missions) 
in  the  local  associations.  The  dates  for  these  World  Missions  Con- 
ferences must  be  reserved  many  months  in  advance.  It  is  necessary 
to  coordinate  the  schedule  with  the  association  involved,  the  Di- 
vision of  Missions,  and  corresponding  divisions  of  the  Home  and 
Foreign  Mission  Boards.  Please  call  us  two  or  three  years  ahead  of 
your  desired  schedule  for  the  conferences. 

The  Division  of  Missions  maintains  a  close  working  relationship 
with  Associational  Missionaries  throughout  the  state.  The  budget  of 
the  Division  calls  for  financial  aid  to  57  associations  during  1969. 
We  now  have  a  total  of  69  Associational  Missionaries  in  North 
Carolina. 

The  Convention  has  a  small  but  growing  loan  fund  for  the  benefit 
of  small  churches  and  missions  unable  to  secure  a  loan  on  the  current 
money  market.  Twenty  thousand  dollars  ($20,000)  was  budgeted  for 
additional  funds  for  1969.  During  the  year  we  have  made  loans  to 
ten  churches  amounting  to  $45,600. 

1.  Institutional  Ministries 

a.  McCain  Tuberculosis  Sanatorium 
Rev.  C.  R.  Edwards,  Visitor 

The  work  at  McCain  continues  to  serve  a  real  spiritual  need. 
The  families  of  many  of  patients  seldom  visit  them  and  they  feel 
that  they  have  been  left  alone.  My  visits  with  them  say  to  them 
that  we  are  concerned  and  that  we  care. 

Quite  often  pastors  contact  me  and  ask  that  I  give  special  at- 
tention to  their  parishioners.  This  helps  me  to  minister. 

My  visits  are  at  least  once  and  sometim.es  twice  per  week  spending 
as  much  time  there  as  I  think  necessary  to  fulfill  my  mission.  My 
service  consists  of  Bible  reading,  prayer  and  counsel  as  the  occasion 
demands. 

The  patients  at  McCain  wish  that  I  express  to  the  Baptist  State 
Convention  appreciation  for  this  service.

Baptist  State  Convention 


a.  Prison  Unit — McCain  Sanatorium 
Ernest  A.  Stiles,  Visitor 

My  ministry  at  Hoke  Prison  Hospital,  McCain,  N.  C.  has  been  a 
great  joy  to  me  to  be  able  to  minister  to  those  who  are  sick  and 
in  prison.  Although  I  have  been  ministering  in  this  opportunity 
for  only  three  months  now,  I  have  found  it  to  be  a  very  greatly 
needed  and  fruitful  opportunity  of  service. 

Each  Sunday  morning  we  provide  a  worship  service  for  all  who 
can  attend  in  a  room  set  aside  for  that  purpose.  During  the  worship 
service  we  lead  in  prayers,  singing  of  hymns,  the  reading  of  the 
Scriptures  and  a  twenty  to  thirty  minute  message  from  God's  word. 
At  the  close  of  the  service  we  usually  ask  for  a  show  of  hands  of 
those  who  would  like  to  be  remembered  in  prayer,  or  who  may 
have  spiritual  needs  and  would  like  to  talk  with  me  personally. 
The  response  has  been  most  gratifying.  One  man  has  made  public 
profession  of  faith  in  Christ  as  Saviour  and  Lord.  Others  have  in- 
dicated that  the  service  has  been  a  spiritual  uplift  to  them  and  has 
helped  make  their  day  and  week  brighter. 

Following  the  Worship  Service,  and  also  during  the  week  when 
needed,  I  counsel  with  those  who  have  indicated  a  need,  sometimes 
visiting  with  them  in  the  ward.  Just  recently  one  man  was  showing 
me  some  pictures  in  his  room,  how  he  had  changed  from  drawing 
evil  pictures  to  religious  pictures.  He  shared  with  me  that  my  mes- 
sages had  "caused  him  to  change  his  mind  about  things."  He  shared 
some  of  these  pictures  with  me  for  our  church.  I  used  them  as  an 
illustration  during  the  Training  Union  assembly.  This  illustration  im- 
pressed the  members  of  our  Training  Union,  not  only  how  Christ 
can  come  into  a  heart  and  life  and  change  a  man,  but  also  of  the 
fact  that  our  church  has  this  opportunity  to  serve  in  this  way. 
Many  of  our  members  apparently  did  not  realize  that  we  were 
serving  others  through  the  Baptist  State  Convention  Missions  De- 
partment in  this  manner  —  through  State  Missions. 

It  is  such  a  great  blessing  to  all  of  the  patients  to  realize  that 
we  care  enough  to  share  with  them  the  message  of  Christ.  They 
wish  for  me  to  express  appreciation  to  the  Baptist  State  Convention 
for  remembering  them  in  a  special  way. 

b.  Odom  Prison  Farm 
Dalphon  J.  Thompson,  Visiting  Representative 

Odom  Prison  has  changed  its  name  to  Odom  Correctional  Institu- 
tion and  is  located  in  Northampton  County-south  of  Jackson,  four 
miles.  Odom  is  a  close  custody  Institution.  Much  of  the  population 
(300)  in  Odom  are  men  who  have  returned  from  escape  and  were 
serving  time  on  a  felony  charge.  These  men  must  remain  here  a 
year  before  they  are  eligible  for  any  change  to  another  institution 
in  the  state.  In  many  ways  this  makes  Odom  a  short  term  institu- 
tion for  the  men. 

Men  in  prison  have  a  handicap.  Either  they  had  a  handicap  before 


OF  North  Carolina 


123 


coming  on  the  state  or  their  coming  on  the  state  creates  one  when 
they  return  to  the  free  life.  It  is  vital  that  they  get  help  to  overcome 
this  handicap,  and  that  their  family  and  society  friends  see  the 
importance  of  helping  them  in  overcoming  this  handicap.  It  is  part 
of  my  duty  to  help,  where  I  am  allowed,  to  seek  solutions  to  their 
problems.  This  involves  my  helping  them  in  the  worship  on  Sun- 
days, a  group  discussion  of  the  Bible,  and  group  counseling.  It  is 
the  hope  that  a  religious  program  helps  them  to  learn  where  to 
seek  help  to  live  in  our  complicated  society.  It  is  not  as  easy  to  live 
in  our  world  today  and  many  inmates  are  not  able  to  understand 
this. 

An  estimated  55  attend  the  worship  on  Sunday  at  8:45. 

Weekly  Bible  study  —  16  are  enrolled. 

Group  Counseling  each  week — 11  are  enrolled. 

Approximately  5  inmates  come  each  week  to  talk  about  their 
problems. 

The  religious  work  is  growing  at  Odom  and  I  am  glad  to  report 
progress.  I  am  grateful  to  North  Carolina  Baptists  for  their  interest 
in  these  men  and  for  seeing  that  a  work  of  this  type  is  being 
done  at  Odom.  Men  in  prison  need  to  know  that  God  IS  and  cares 
about  them.  This  is  one  of  the  best  ways  to  make  this  known  to 
them. 

c.  Samarcand  Manor  Industrial  and  Vocational  School  For  Girls 
Paul  F.  Hardy,  Baptist  Chaplain 
The  year  1968-1969  leaves  much  to  be  desired  in  the  way  of  a 
glowing  report  on  the  work  at  Samarcand.  This  isn't  being  said  in  an 
attitude  of  defeatism  but  because  of  the  unseen  results  over  against 
the  seen  need. 

It  is  true  that  the  policy  of  the  administration  makes  the  ministry 
primarily  one  of  Sunday  afternoon  worship  services.  Counseling 
with  the  girls  is  not  forbidden  but  it  is  not  encouraged.  The  "invi- 
tation" as  a  part  of  the  worship  service  has  been  discontinued  be- 
cause it  is  not  in  the  best  interest  of  the  girls'  emotional  state. 

Worship  services  have  been  held  regularly  throughout  1968-1969 
on  the  third  Sunday  afternoon  of  each  month.  The  monthly  re- 
ports show  a  question  mark  at  the  "Number  of  Converts."  Prayer- 
fully, it  is  hoped  that  the  preaching  of  the  Word  will  bear  its  fruit. 
"Being  found  faithful"  is  the  goal  of  God's  steward  and  your 
chaplain. 

As  a  service  of  the  Bethlehem  Baptist  Church,  Intermediate  Sun- 
day School  Quarterlies  and  Upward  Magazines  for  Youth  are  fur- 
nished regularly  for  the  girls  of  the  school.  "Study  to  show  thyself 
approved  unto  God.  .  .  ."

The  boy  was  one  of  seven  children.  He  has  lived  most  of  his 
thirteen  years  in  one  apartment  and  another.  The  unmarried  mother 


124 


Baptist  State  Convention 


has  taken  the  children  and  moved  just  one  step  ahead  of  the  col- 
lector of  back  rent. 

At  first  it  was  hard  to  understand  why  mother  had  sent  the  little 
ones  out  onto  the  stairway  to  play  when  one  of  her  "boyfriends" 
called.  After  a  while,  however,  even  a  five  year  old  notices  that 
the  food  gets  more  plentiful  when  one  of  the  "boyfriends"  has  left. 
There  is  sometimes  even  the  rare  occurrence  of  a  new  pair  of 
shoes.  The  tearing  apart  of  the  child's  personality  is  just  about 
completed  by  hearing  the  swearing,  slugging  fights  between  the 
only  person  dear  to  him  and  one  of  the  current  "boyfriends." 

My  judgement  of  this  mother  is  not  important.  The  problem, 
now,  is  to  help  a  boy  who  has  turned  away  from  all  women  and 
has  become,  at  this  tender  age,  a  homosexual.  To  tell  him  that  this 
course  is  wrong  is  to  pour  water  on  a  duck's  back.  To  tell  him  that 
sin  will  deliver  him  to  hell  is  ridiculous.  He  already  lives  there.  To 
tell  him  that  you  love  him  is  to  meet  with  ingrained  suspicion. 

The  thing  we  can  do  is  to  follow  Jesus  in  casting  aside  all  judge- 
ments and  putting  the  love  of  Christ  into  action. 

"If  you  have  done  it  unto  one  of  the  least  of  these,  my  brethren 
you  have  done  it  unto  me."

Michael  T.  Ray,  Baptist  Chaplain 

1968-69  has  been  a  busy  year  as  well  as  a  very  challenging  one. 
During  October-December  1968,  Seminary  Extension  classes  were 
conducted  for  21  counselors  in  a  "Survey  of  the  Life  of  Christ,"  and 
in  the  spring  of  1969,  a  "Historical  Survey  of  Christianity"  was 
taught  to  14  counselors.  Certificates  were  presented  to  each  man 
and  woman  who  completed  the  two  courses  at  a  graduation  exercise 
witnessed  by  the  student  body  of  the  school.  The  quality  of  teach- 
ing by  these  counselors,  who  teach  in  the  Sunday  School,  has  been 
greatly  improved. 

In  June,  a  Vacation  Bible  School  was  held  for  60  boys  who  at- 
tended five  full  days.  At  the  end  of  the  school  opportunity  was 
given  for  the  boys  to  make  decisions:  eight  (8)  boys  made  com- 
mitment of  their  life  to  Christ  for  the  first  time,  and  seven  (7)  boys 
rededicated  their  lives  to  Christ. 

Sunday  morning  vespers  are  conducted  by  the  Chaplain  and  three 
other  ministers.  Counseling  sessions  are  provided  for  those  boys 
who  desire  to  talk  with  the  chaplain  about  their  problems.  At  the 
present  time  there  are  45  boys  enrolled  (voluntarily)  in  a  Bible 
class  which  meets  the  first  and  third  Tuesday  of  each  month.  Bibles 
have  been  provided  by  the  ladies  of  the  Cameron  Baptist  Church. 

There  seems  to  be  a  hunger  on  the  part  of  many  of  the  boys  at 
Morrison  for  answers  to  their  problems,  and  we  believe  Christ  has 
the  answer.  Your  prayers  are  invited  and  appreciated  as  we  seek  to 
reveal  Christ  to  these  young  men.

2.  Department  of  Interracial  Cooperation 

CoRBiN  L.  Cooper,  Secretary 

Baptists  in  the  two  state  conventions  have  strengthened  some 
established  work  during  1969  while  opening  new  avenues  of  service 
together. 

Members  of  the  General  Baptist  State  Convention  shared  in  the 
annual  statewide  Vacation  Bible  School  clinic  at  Wingate  College  in 
January.  A  new  feature  on  the  program  was  an  inspirational  mes- 
sage delivered  by  Dr.  Leon  Riddick,  a  Negro  pastor  from  Charlotte. 
The  clinic  is  planned  by  the  Sunday  School  Department. 

For  the  second  time,  the  statewide  conference  on  evangelism  held 
in  Greensboro  was  sponsored  jointly  by  the  two  conventions.  The 
first  statewide  Men  and  Boys  Convention  to  be  co-sponsored  was 
held  in  Winston-Salem  in  March.  The  meeting  was  arranged  by  the 
Laymen's  League  of  the  General  Baptist  State  Convention  and  the 
Brotherhood  Department  of  the  Baptist  State  Convention.  A  record 
attendance  of  over  7,000  was  recorded. 

The  annual  series  of  conferences  on  human  relations  was  held  in 
April  and  utilized  the  talents  of  Dr.  W.  R.  Grigg  and  Dr.  Emmanuel 
McCall  of  the  Home  Mission  Board.  Conferences  were  held  at  the 
Yates  Baptist  Church,  Durham,  the  University  Baptist  Church, 
Chapel  Hill,  and  the  First  Baptist  Churches  of  Ahoskie,  Wilson  and 
Gastonia. 

Other  departments  utilizing  Negro  talent  in  statewide  activities  in- 
cluded the  Baptist  Youth  Convention,  held  at  Lumberton  in  May, 
and  featured  Dr.  F.  G.  Sampson,  a  pastor  from  Louisville,  Ken- 
tucky. This  convention  was  planned  by  the  Church  Training  De- 
partment. Also,  Dr.  and  Mrs.  C.  R.  Edwards  of  the  First  Baptist 
Church,  Fayetteville,  served  as  the  first  Negro  conference  leaders 
at  the  North  Carolina  Baptist  Assembly,  Southport,  during  World 
Missions  Week  in  June. 

Various  churches  and  associations  have  encouraged  the  program 
of  work  with  National  Baptists  on  the  local  level.  Successful  bi- 
racial  revivals  were  planned  and  held  in  Robeson  and  Anson  as- 
sociations this  year.  Several  associations  invited  Negro  speakers  to 
participate  in  their  annual  meetings.  A  growing  number  of  white 
pastors  and  congregations  are  seeking  ways  of  dialogue  with  Negro 
congregations. 

Scholarship  aid  was  provided  for  22  students  at  Shaw  University, 
North  Carolina  College  at  Durham,  Fruitland  Bible  Institute,  Union 
Christian  Institute,  and  Hardbarger  Business  College. 

Vacation  Bible  School  work  continues  to  improve  in  quantity  and 
quality  with  the  department  helping  with  52  schools  this  year  en- 
rolling 5,132  people.  Exciting  efforts  with  Week  Day  Bible  camps 
were  held  at  the  Mount  Zion  Baptist  Church,  Asheville,  and  the 
Bethel  "A"  Baptist  Church,  Brevard. 

Those  who  serve  with  the  department  in  addition  to  the  Secretary 


126 


Baptist  State  Convention 


are  Mrs.  Mary  E.  Washington,  Office  Secretary;  Rev.  C.  C.  Craig, 
Raleigh;  Rev.  J.  Z.  Alexander,  Raleigh;  Rev.  Marvin  Williams, 
Rocky  Mount;  Rev.  Benjamin  Daniels,  Winston-Salem;  and  Mrs. 
Alcovia  O.  McCall,  Asheville.  In  addition  to  these  there  were  8 
adults  and  9  young  people  employed  as  summer  workers.  The  Home 
Mission  Board  sponsored  two  of  the  summer  workers. 

3.  Department  of  Deaf  Missions 

Jerry  F.  Potter,  Missionary 
Neal  L.  Peyton,  Associate 

Matthew  13:52  says  "The  Kingdom  of  Heaven  is  like  a  man  that 
brings  out  of  his  treasures  things  new  and  old."  Our  approach  to 
the  ministry  among  the  deaf  is  both  old  and  new  —  new  ap- 
proaches for  spreading  the  same  old  unchanging  gospel. 

A  new  approach  to  reaching  the  busy  deaf  people  of  the  inner 
city  was  pioneered  this  summer  past.  It  is  hoped  the  pilot  project 
will  show  us  the  path  to  take  in  future  summers  as  we  use  summer 
workers  who  are  proficient  in  the  use  of  sign  language. 

A  letter  from  the  chaplain  at  one  of  our  state  mental  hospitals 
prompted  us  to  remember  the  verse  in  Matthew  25,  verse  36,  *'I 
was  sick  and  ye  visited  me."  We  are  beginning  a  program  of  regular 
visitation  with  special  classes  for  those  capable  of  advanced  learning. 

We  are  continually  encouraged  at  the  progress  of  the  interpreters 
and  teachers  in  the  local  churches.  If  the  ministry  to  the  deaf  is 
ever  going  to  accomplish  anything  vital,  it  will  be  in  and  through 
the  local  church. 

4.  City  and  Metropolitan  Missions  Department 

Ernest  C.  Upchurch,  Secretary 

The  City  and  Metropolitan  Missions  Department  of  the  Division 
of  Missions  seeks  to  promote  a  total  mission  program  in  every  area 
of  North  Carolina  that  has  a  population  of  2,500  and  up.  However, 
the  metropolitan  culture  is  always  active  in  shaping  concept  and 
values  in  all  geographical  areas  of  our  state. 

The  projected  population  growth  of  our  state  reveals  a  need  to 
reach  more  people  in  the  days  ahead  with  the  Christian  witness  of 
our  churches.  This  department  is  the  urban  missionary  effort  of  our 
convention  to  assist  churches  and-or  associations  in  extending  this 
witness. 

Metropolitan  missions  has  three  distinct  phases  of  its  work, 
namely : 

1.  The  General  Urban  Church  and 
associational  ministries 

A.  Research  and  study  has  been  made  in  metropolitan  mission 
needs  and  ministries  and  ways  and  means  of  meeting  these  needs. 

B.  Churches  and  associations  have  been  assisted  in  specific  urban 
needs  and  long  range  planning  of  associational  city  ministries. 


OF  North  Carolina 


127 


C.  Seminars  and  conferences  and  clinics  have  been  well  received 
by  ministers  and  lay  people  in  this  area  of  work.  The  one  out- 
standing metropolitan  missions  conference  of  this  nature  was  held 
in  Durham  during  the  year.  Also,  a  very  successful  Rural-Urban 
Conference  was  held  at  Gardner- Webb  College  this  year. 

D.  Urban  institutional  ministries  have  been  encouraged  among 
industry,  hospitals,  rest  homes,  etc. 

E.  Pastoral  assistance  was  provided,  in  keeping  with  the  General 
Board's  guiding  principles  for  thirty-six  churches  and  missions. 

F.  Lot  assistance  was  provided,  in  keeping  with  the  General 
Board's  guiding  principles,  for  seventeen  churches. 

II.  Metropolitan  Christian  Social  Ministries 

The  compassion  ministries  of  Jesus  were  to  all  people  —  "When 
he  saw  the  multitude  he  was  moved  with  compassion  on  them." 
Matthew  9:36. 

Christ  not  only  had  compassion  on  the  multitudes  he  also  had 
compassion  on  individuals.  He  had  compassion  on  the  widow  of 
Nain  (Luke  7:11-15),  on  two  blind  men  (Matthew  20:30-34),  on  a 
leper  (Mark  1:40-42),  and  on  many  more  in  need.  Many  of  his 
miracles  expressed  compassion  for  people.  In  Matthew  25  he  made 
it  clear  as  to  the  seriousness  of  this  helping  ministry.  The  Christian 
Social  Ministries  is  designed  to  meet  the  total  compassion  needs 
— moral  and  spiritual  of  mankind. 

A.  Associational  Programs.  The  associational  Christian  Social 
Ministries  includes  services  in  Baptist  Center  work  (kindergarten, 
weekday  activities.  Good  Will  Centers)  Rescue  Missions,  Youth  and 
Family  Services,  Literacy,  Migrant  and  Relief  Ministries.  The  New 
South  River  Association  with  Mr.  John  Halbert  as  director  has 
made  remarkable  growth  in  its  ministry  to  all  of  Cumberland 
county  and  its  fringe  areas  within  the  association. 

The  Gaston  Baptist  Association  with  Gerald  Edwards  as  di- 
rector, has  moved  ahead  in  its  ministry  to  all  Gaston  County.  We  are 
grateful  to  God  for  these  dedicated  young  men  and  their  ministry 
in  these  areas  of  our  state. 

B.  We  are  assisting  financially  two  full  time  Baptist  Center  pro- 
grams. One  in  Winston-Salem,  Patterson  Avenue  Baptist  Center  with 
the  Rev.  and  Mrs.  Roy  Hood,  Co-directors.  One  in  Eden,  the  Dan 
Valley  Baptist  Center  with  the  Rev.  and  Mrs.  Marvin  Southard,  Co- 
directors.  These  are  sponsored  in  cooperation  with  the  Home  Mission 
Board  and  the  respective  associations. 

A  summer  church-community  weekday  project  was  operated  in 
the  Mount  Zion  Association's  West  Hillsborough  church-community 
with  Miss  Ann  Cox  serving  as  worker.  Also,  another  one  in  the 
mobile  homes  of  the  New  South  River  Association,  Fayetteville  with 
Mr.  Don  Saunders  serving  as  worker. 

C.  Youth  and  Family  Services.  Raleigh,  in  cooperation  with  the 
Raleigh  Baptist  Association  and  the  Home  Mission  Board,  Mr.  Eu- 
gene Scarborough  is  serving  as  minister  of  this  work. 


128 


Baptist  State  Convention 


Two  part-time  programs  have  been  launched  during  1969  —  one 
in  the  Mount  Zion  Baptist  Association  with  the  Rev.  E.  J.  Bar- 
bour, Jr.  serving  as  director.  Another  in  the  Central  Baptist  Associa- 
tion with  the  Rev.  Paul  Odum  serving  as  director.  There  are  many- 
more  places  that  this  ministry  is  needed.  However,  we  are  limited  in 
finances  and  personnel  at  this  time. 

Many  associations  are  electing  Youth  and  Family  Services  Com- 
mittees to  perform  a  voluntary  ministry  as  a  "stop-gap  method" 
of  assistance  here.  All  of  our  associations  could  elect  committees  to 
perform  a  volunteer  ministry. 

D.  Adult  Rehabilitation.  A  special  adult  rehabilitation  project 
was  held  in  Yates  Baptist  Association  this  year.  This  project  was  di- 
rected toward  alcoholics  and  their  family  rehabilitation.  The  Rev. 
Boyce  Kimball  served  as  minister  to  this  project. 

E.  Literacy.  Workshops  were  conducted  in  several  associations 
and  among  the  field  workers  of  metropolitan  missions.  One  state- 
wide project  of  literacy  training  was  held  in  Greensboro.  Ways  of 
implementing  this  work  are  being  studied  and  strategies  planned. 

F.  Migrant  Work.  This  phase  of  our  ministry  is  designed  to  share 
the  Christian  faith  with  the  migrant  and  to  develop  in  him  a  sense 
of  his  personal  worth,  belonging  and  responsibility.  A  cooperative 
ministry  of  this  nature  was  held  in  Henderson  County  (Henderson- 
ville  and  surrounding  areas.)  Mr.  Charles  Hayes  served  as  minister 
during  the  summer  of  1969.  Volunteer  leaders  were  used  in  the 
eastern  part  of  North  Carolina.  The  Rev.  H.  A.  Privette,  Superin- 
tendent of  Missions  of  the  Atlantic  Baptist  Association,  coordinated 
the  program  for  this  association. 

III.  The  Work  Related  to  Non-Evangelicals 

The  work  among  the  Jews,  Catholics,  Christian  sects  and  Non- 
Evangelicals  is  directed  to  our  churches  through  study  and  research 
through  the  help  of  the  Home  Mission  Board.  Basic  information 
has  been  gathered  and  compiled  in  tracts  and  pamphlets  and  dis- 
tributed among  our  churches.  Many  new  pamphlets  related  to  this 
work  have  been  written  and  distributed  during  the  year  in  co- 
operation with  the  Home  Mission  Board's  Department  of  Non- 
Evangelicals.  The  department  is  willing  to  assist  any  interested  as- 
sociation in  a  project  of  "mail  out."  The  mail  out  ministry  is 
designed  to  share  pertinent  information  related  to  needs  of  the 
given  association.  We  welcome  inquiries  from  the  association  about 
this  cooperative  ministry. 

Conclusions:  The  City  and  Metropolitan  Missions  Department 
ministries  are  administered  in  cooperation  with  the  Departments  of 
Metropolitan  Missions,  Christian  Social  Ministries  and  Non-Evan- 
gelical of  the  Home  Mission  Board  of  the  Southern  Baptist  Con- 
vention. This  cooperative  method  finds  this  department  supplying 
joint  employed  personnel,  funds,  techniques  and  working  closely 
with  local  co-sponsors  of  the  mission's  projects. 

The  department's  continued  concern  and  perspective  is  for  all 


OF  North  Carolina 


129 


people,  especially  in  urban  areas  of  North  Carolina.  The  depart- 
ment's ministries  are  a  part  of  the  total  witness  of  State  Missions. 
We  use  all  available  channels  to  inform  churches  and  associations 
of  mission  opportunities  and  to  motivate  them  to  participate  in 
mission  actions  to  the  glory  of  God  and  the  salvation  of  the  lost. 

We  convey  our  thanks  to  the  Baptists  of  North  Carolina,  to  Dr. 
W.  Perry  Crouch,  General  Secretary-Treasurer,  Dr.  Howard  J. 
Ford,  Director  of  the  Division  of  Missions,  to  all  the  department 
field  staff,  and  the  Mrs.  Hugh  Grimmer,  office  secretary,  for  the 
faithful  support  given  to  metropolitan  missions  during  the  year  of 
1968-69. 

5.  Fruitland  Baptist  Bible  Institute 

E.  Gary  Harthcock,  Administrator 
Alex  L.  Booth,  Jr.,  Dean 

Since  the  1968  report,  the  students,  faculty  and  administrative 
personnel  at  Fruitland  Baptist  Bible  Institute  have  entered  the  new 
J.  C.  Canipe  Building.  This  beautiful  new  facility  houses  a  modern 
library,  a  book  store,  a  student  lounge  and  refreshment  area,  con- 
ference rooms  and  administrative  offices.  Not  only  has  the  campus 
been  greatly  enhanced  by  this  addition,  but  the  spirit  of  the  stu- 
dent body  has  been  greatly  strengthened. 

During  the  past  year  thirty-eight  seniors  completed  the  eight 
twelve-week  quarters  required  for  graduation.  They  received  their 
diplomas  in  an  excellent  service  held  at  First  Baptist  Church,  Hen- 
derson ville,  on  May  31.  Mrs.  J.  P.  Franklin,  wife  of  one  of  the 
graduating  seniors,  had  the  distinction  of  being  the  first  woman  to 
graduate  from  the  Bible  Institute. 

The  fall  quarter  of  1969,  which  began  on  August  26,  is  filled  to 
capacity  with  a  waiting  list  for  the  winter  quarter  which  begins 
November  20.  The  number  of  students  in  any  one  quarter  is  limited 
to  approximately  150.  At  the  present  time  there  are  151  students 
representing  37  North  Carolina  Associations  and  9  different  states. 
Forty-six  of  the  students  now  enrolled  are  serving  as  pastors  of  Bap- 
tist churches.  One  student  is  serving  as  a  Minister  of  Youth.  Sixty- 
seven  students  are  employed  outside  of  school  hours  to  support 
their  families.  Twenty-three  students  receive  financial  aid  through 
one  of  the  government  programs. 

The  faculty  of  twelve  is  doing  an  excellent  job  in  presenting 
materials  covering  twenty-four  basic  courses.  In  addition,  Mrs.  Gary 
Harthcock  teaches  an  elective  class  in  Social  Graces  and  plans  and 
coordinates  an  annual  Wives'  Week  designed  to  strengthen  the 
effectiveness  of  the  student  wives  in  their  wife-of-the-pastor  roles. 

6.  Town  and  Country  and  Seminary  Extension  Department 

Roy  J.  Smith,  Secretary 

The  objective  of  the  Town  and  Country  and  Seminary  Extension 
Department  is  two-fold:  (1)  Work  with  small  town  and  rural 
churches  in  a  program  of  overall  church  development;  and  (2) 
Promote  the  state-wide  ministries  of  Resort  Missions,  Mountain

Baptist  State  Convention 


Missions,  Weeks  of  Christian  Study  and  Fellowship,  and  Seminary 
Extension. 

The  Rural-Urban  Department  of  the  Home  Mission  Board  and  the 
Seminary  Extension  Department  of  the  Southern  Baptist  Convention 
participate  in  the  ministry  of  this  department. 

Mrs.  Nan  Jones  is  the  office  secretary. 

Seminary  Extension 
The  Seminary  Extension  program  continues  to  expand  in  North 
Carolina.  During  1969  four  associations  organized  Seminary  Ex- 
tension centers  for  the  first  time.  During  1969  more  than  1500 
students  were  enrolled  in  seventy-five  centers  from  the  mountains 
to  the  sea. 

Seminary  Extension  is  designed  for  pastors,  church  leaders,  and 
church  members  who  are  interested  in  enriching  their  spiritual  lives 
through  the  discipline  of  in-depth  study  and  training.  Courses  are 
offered  in  Biblical  Interpretation,  Theology,  Religious  Education, 
Church  History,  and  Missions. 

Financial  assistance,  in  the  form  of  scholarships  and  teachers' 
honoraria,  is  provided  where  needed. 

Pastoral  Aid — Lot  Aid 

Sixty  churches  and  missions  in  twenty-eight  associations  received 
pastoral  aid  during  1969.  Sixteen  of  these  mission  pastors  are  stu- 
dents and  eleven  are  serving  fields  of  two  or  more  churches. 

Thirteen  churches  in  eight  associations  received  aid  on  the  pur- 
chase of  church  lots.  These  mission  grants  ranged  from  $700.00  to 
$2,400.00. 

In  the  allocation  of  the  mission  funds,  priority  is  given  to  churches 
joining  together  in  a  field  of  work,  student  pastors,  and  churches 
with  unusual  missionary  opportunities. 

Week  of  Christian  Study  and  Fellowship 
The  annual  Week  of  Christian  Study  and  Fellowship  at  Mars 
Hill  had  an  enrollment  of  440.  This  week  makes  it  possible  for  pas- 
tors and  their  families  to  come  aside  for  worship,  study,  and 
recreation.  A  comprehensive  program  is  provided  for  ministers, 
their  wives,  and  children.  Nursery  through  Intermediate  age. 

Program  personalities  this  year  included  Furney  Baker,  minister 
of  music;  Dr.  Clyde  Fant,  Southwestern  Seminary,  pastor;  and  Dr. 
Henry  Turlington,  University  Baptist  Church,  Chapel  Hill,  Bible 
teacher. 

Meals  are  the  only  cost  to  those  attending.  Mars  Hill  College  and 
the  Town  and  Country  Missions  Department  provide  lodging  fa- 
cilities and  the  program. 

Resort  Missions 
Resort  Missions  is  one  of  the  fastest  growing  missions  ministries 
in  North  Carolina.  The  Baptist  State  Convention  participated  in 
ministries  at  seven  of  the  major  resort  areas  in  our  state.  The

ministries  are  varied  and  flexible,  reflecting  the  imagination  and 
creativity  of  local  leadership  and  the  desire  to  meet  the  needs  of 
each  given  area. 

1.  Chimney  Rock  —  Lake  Lure.  Ronnie  Pinkerton,  pastor  of  the 
Chimney  Rock  Baptist  Church,  and  Andy  Webb,  a  student  at  Fruit- 
land,  conducted  vesper  services  in  the  campgrounds,  musical  pro- 
grams, and  movies  on  the  beach  each  Saturday  night.  Lakeside 
worship  services  were  held  each  Sunday. 

2.  Lake  Norman  —  Ronnie  Boswell,  US-2  missionary,  and  Bob 
Shepherd,  pastor  of  First  Church,  Mooresville  conducted  a  variety 
of  activities  and  services  at  three  major  campgrounds.  Drums, 
Al's,  and  Cross  Country.  The  ministry  included  recreational  ac- 
tivities for  various  age  groups,  movies,  and  talent  shows,  in  addi- 
tion to  the  Sunday  worship  services.  On  Labor  Day  weekend  500 
people  were  in  worship  services  at  the  three  campgrounds.  This 
ministry  is  sponsored  by  First  Church,  Mooresville,  the  Mecklen- 
burg, South  Yadkin,  and  South  Fork  Associations,  and  the  Baptist 
State  Convention. 

3  &  4.  White  Lake  —  Ocean  Isle  —  These  ministries  provided 
movies  on  the  beach  and  general  pastoral  services  to  the  multitudes 
visiting  these  areas.  The  White  Lake  ministry  is  sponsored  by  the 
White  Lake  Baptist  Church,  the  Bladen  Baptist  Association,  and 
Baptist  State  Convention.  The  Ocean  Isle  Ministry  is  sponsored  by 
the  Brunswick  Baptist  Association  and  the  Baptist  State  Convention. 

5.  Atlantic  Beach  —  David  Smith,  a  first  year  student  at  South- 
eastern Seminary,  was  the  Baptist  chaplain  on  Atlantic  Beach  this 
year.  In  addition  to  worship  services  in  two  campgrounds,  he  con- 
ducted vespers,  showed  religious  films,  and  served  as  pastor,  coun- 
selor, and  friend  to  the  vast  numbers  who  visited  this  area. 

In  cooperation  with  other  religious  groups,  a  coffee  house  min- 
istry, **The  Koinonia  House"  was  initiated.  Located  in  the  midst  of 
the  Atlantic  Beach  pavilion,  this  proved  to  be  an  oasis  where 
people  could  come  to  discuss  life,  its  meaning,  and  implications  of 
the  Christian  faith. 

6.  Kitty  Hawk  —  J.  W.  Costner  and  David  Moore  directed  the 
three  phase  ministry  at  Kitty  Hawk.  Mr.  Costner  was  pastor  of  the 
Baptist  Chapel  where  Sunday  School  and  worship  services  were  held 
each  Sunday,  June  through  Labor  Day,  and  he  showed  movies  on 
the  beach  Wednesday  through  Saturday  each  week.  David  Moore 
served  as  Associate  Pastor  in  addition  to  playing  with  the  musical 
combo  at  the  Circus  Tent. 

Four  concerts  of  religious  folk  songs  and  contemporary  spirituals 
were  presented  each  night.  This  new  approach  in  Christian  wit- 
ness and  ministry  continues  to  attract  capacity  crowds. 

7.  Ski  Resorts  —  Ronnie  Boswell,  US-2  missionary  is  the  Baptist 
Chaplain  on  the  ski  slopes  of  the  Banner  Elk-Boone-Blowing  Rock 
area.  He  has  an  opportunity  to  witness  to  the  thousands  who  come 
to  this  winter  playground  each  week.

Baptist  State  Convention 


This  exciting,  growing  work  opens  new  doors  of  ministry  and 
service  in  almost  every  area  of  our  state. 

Truett  Camp 

Three  significant  milestones  were  reached  at  Truett  Home  and 
Camp  this  year. 

1.  A  long  range  plan  of  development  was  adopted  by  the  Baptist 
State  Convention  and  the  churches  in  Region  10.  A  swimming  pool 
was  installed  prior  to  the  opening  of  the  camping  season. 

2.  In  addition  to  a  capacity  enrollment  for  the  scheduled  season, 
one  additional  week  was  added  to  accommodate  the  enrollment 
of  intermediate  girls. 

3.  On  May  6,  the  102nd  anniversary  of  Dr.  George  Truett's  birth, 
dedication  services  were  held  at  the  redecorated  and  refurnished 
Truett  Home.  The  W.M.S.  of  First  Church,  Asheville  led  in  this 
project  with  financial  assistance  from  the  Baptist  State  Convention. 
The  living-dining  room,  study,  and  two  bedrooms  were  furnished 
with  pieces  of  the  period  when  the  Truetts  lived  in  the  home. 
Three  generations  of  Truetts,  Dr.  Truett's  daughter,  grand- daughter 
and  great  grand-daughter,  were  present  for  the  service. 

The  Truett  Home  is  open  to  visitors  at  stated  hours  each  day. 

7.  Indian  Ministry 

Cherokee  Child  Care  Center 
Miss  Tone  Johns,  Director 

The  Child  Care  program  continues  to  minister  to  children  ages 
2-5,  from  various  areas  of  the  reservation.  The  average  enrollment 
for  the  year  was  fifty  children. 

Miss  Phyllis  Ragan  joined  the  child  care  staff  in  November,  1968 
as  Associate  Director.  Under  her  very  capable  leadership  and  as- 
sistance the  entire  program  has  progressed.  The  kindergarten  pro- 
gram has  especially  enjoyed  and  appreciated  her  guidance. 

Miss  lone  Johns,  Child  Care  Director  since  August  1967,  re- 
signed this  position  effective  October  1,  1969  in  order  to  be  married 
and  will  return  to  her  native  state  of  Mississippi. 

8.  Military  Ministries  and  Oriental  Work 

After  several  years  of  hard  work  and  aggressive  planning,  the 
Reverend  J.  Ned  Beatty  resigned  his  work  as  Secretary  of  Military 
Ministries  December  31,  1968.  This  was  in  keeping  with  his  desire 
to  enter  the  pastorate.  His  resignation  was  regretfully  accepted. 
Plans  are  now  proceeding  toward  securing  a  Secretary  of  Chaplaincy 
Ministries.  He  would  spend  a  part  of  his  time  working  with  Mili- 
tary Chaplains.  In  addition  to  the  work  being  done  now  by  Mrs. 
Toni  Romine,  the  Division  Director  has  been  giving  attention  to 
coordinating  the  work  in  military  areas.  Financial  aid  is  still  being 
channeled  into  these  areas  of  our  state.  Much  of  it  is  in  assistance 


OF  North  Carolina 


133 


for  Vacation  Bible  School  work;  some  for  mission  churches;  pastoral 
aid,  and  loans.  The  New  River  Association  has  opened  a  Center  for 
military  personnel  in  the  heart  of  Jacksonville.  The  Executive  Com- 
mittee of  the  General  Board  has  approved  financial  assistance  for 
this  project. 

Since  Mr.  Beatty's  resignation,  Mrs.  Toni  Romine  has  been  of 
valuable  assistance  in  working  with  the  Orientals  primarily  in  the 
Jacksonville  (Camp  LeJeune)  area.  She  gives  the  following  ac- 
count of  her  year's  work : 

'This  past  year  has  been  a  significant  one  among  our  Oriental 
speaking  people.  The  work  has  received  tremendous  boost  through 
the  ministry  of  the  Associations.  This  work  is  a  joint  endeavor  of 
The  Baptist  State  Convention  of  North  Carolina,  the  local  associa- 
tion, and  the  Home  Mission  Board. 

"My  schedule  this  past  year  has  been  primarily  in  the  Jackson- 
ville-Camp Lejuene  area.  I  have  worked  in  planning  with  the  Fay- 
ette ville  and  Cherry  Point  areas. 

"A  real  highlight  of  the  year's  activities  was  the  five  Oriental 
ladies  who  were  members  of  Soka  Gakai  groups,  but  gave  it  up 
for  Jesus  Christ.  They  are  now  Christians  and  active  members  of 
Baptist  Churches  in  the  Jacksonville  area.  I  am  really  running 
into  Soka  Gakai  people  who  want  to  become  Christians,  however 
they  are  a  little  afraid. 

"The  State- wide  Oriental  Fellowship  was  held  on  May  16,  at 
Midville  Baptist  Church  in  Jacksonville.  Some  220  oriental  wives, 
their  husbands  and  children  along  with  workers  and  invited  guests 
attended  from  the  Fayetteville-Fort  Bragg  area,  the  Havelock- 
Cherry  Point  area,  and  the  Jacksonville-Camp  Lejeune  area.  Dr. 
Robert  H.  Culpepper,  missionary  to  Japan,  was  our  guest  speaker. 

"During  the  year,  our  Oriental  ministry  has  been  expanded  by 
beginning  a  new  class  at  Enon  Chapel  Baptist  Church,  Midway 
Park,  North  Carolina.  Also  the  work  has  been  expanded  to  include 
English  classes  at  Midville  Baptist,  Brookwood  and  Enon  Chapel 
churches.  Plans  are  to  begin  a  night  class  at  Midville  Church  for 
Oriental  ladies  who  work  and  cannot  attend  the  day  classes. 

"I  have  visited  in  churches  helping  with  and  reporting  my  work. 
I  have  visited  in  many  homes,  written  letters  and  interpreted  letters. 
I  have  visited  in  hospitals  and  helped  Oriental  ladies  with  children 
to  understand  doctors.  I  have  gone  with  others  to  the  welfare 
office  and  lawyer's  offices.  This  year  has  been  filled  with  awesome 
responsibilities  but  with  joyful  fruits  for  our  Labor.  For  myself  and 
all  our  Oriental  speaking  people  we  express  our  appreciation  to 
Baptists  of  North  Carolina  —  to  the  pastors  and  churches  who 
sponsor  oriental  classes,  each  of  the  missionaries  in  our  military 
areas,  and  to  Dr.  Howard  Ford,  without  whose  encouragement  and 
leadership  much  of  this  would  have  been  impossible. 

"Pray  that  God  will  continue  to  work  in  and  through  us  to  reach 
the  Oriental  people  that  live  among  us."

C.  DIVISION  OF  EVANGELISM 

Julian  S.  Hopkins,  Director 
William  C.  Lamb,  Associate  Director 
Report  of  the  Director 
During  the  past  four  years  Baptists  in  the  Western  Hemisphere 
have  been  looking  forward  with  increasing  concern  to  1969  — 
the  year  designated  for  simultaneous  revivals  in  the  Crusade  of 
the  Americas.  It  was  the  hope  and  prayer  of  many  that  this  would 
be  the  year  when  a  great  tide  of  spiritual  power  would  be  ex- 
perienced across  North,  Central  and  South  America.  It  is  too  early 
and  reports  are  too  meager  at  this  time  to  attempt  an  appraisal  of 
the  revival  experiences  across  these  continents;  so  this  report  is 
confined  to  North  Carolina. 

SiMIULTANEOUS  REVIVALS 

More  associations  and  more  churches  participated  in  the  simul- 
taneous revivals  than  in  any  previous  campaign.  Reports,  which 
are  incomplete  at  this  date  (October  3)  indicate  there  has  been 
an  increase  in  baptisms  over  last  year.  Several  churches  (which 
are  scattered  over  the  state)  have  experienced  spiritual  revivals 
beyond  the  ordinary.  In  several  instances  these  revivals  broke  out 
among  young  people  and  spread  throughout  the  churches.  In  every 
instance  there  was  unusual  prayer  concern.  This  simply  indicates 
again  that  when  God's  people  "pray  and  seek  His  face"  revivals 
follow. 

Prayer  Retreats 
The  week  of  January  13-18  was  given  to  prayer  retreats  in  six 
locations  across  the  state.  Close  to  one  thousand  people  gathered  in 
these  retreats  for  prayer,  Bible  study  and  heart  searching.  Dr. 
Thomas  L.  Neely,  President  of  North  Greenville  Baptist  College, 
Tigerville,  South  Carolina,  and  Reverend  Jack  Wilder,  Pastor  of 
Florida  Street  Baptist  Church,  Greensboro  served  as  speakers  and 
were  mightily  used  of  God.  It  seems  clear  now  that  those  Retreats 
were  used  powerfully  of  the  Lord  to  prepare  the  people  for  the 
Conference  On  Evangelism  in  February  and  to  intensify  their  pray- 
ing for  revivals  in  the  churches. 

Conference  on  Evangelism 

Possibly  the  most  helpful  single  thing  the  Division  of  Evangelism 
has  done  is  the  planning  and  conducting  of  the  annual  Statewide 
Conference  On  Evangelism.  This  year  the  Conference  was  held  in 
Greensboro  in  the  War  Memorial  Auditorium  (the  third  time  there 
in  succession).  Attendance  was  the  largest  ever  with  the  Audi- 
torium filled  to  capacity.  Almost  2,900  registered  with  total  at- 
tendance being  considerably  beyond  that  figure. 

Judging  from  letters  received  and  the  comments  of  people  from 
all  sections  of  the  state,  the  Conference  in  February  was  powerfully 
used  of  God  to  get  those  attending  deeply  concerned  about  their 
own  spiritual  condition  and  about  the  spiritual  condition  in  their 


OF  North  Carolina 


135 


churches.  Many  pastors  have  reported  that  the  spiritual  renewal 
they  received  at  the  Conference  carried  over  into  their  churches 
and  resulted  in  genuine  spiritual  revivals  in  the  Crusade  of  the 
Americas  this  past  spring. 

The  speakers  for  the  Conference  were : 

Dr.  Stephen  F.  Olford,  Pastor,  Calvary  Baptist  Church,  New  York 
City  and  Dr.  Vance  Havner,  Evangelist,  Greensboro.  Each  of  these 
men  spoke  at  every  session. 

Dr.  Robert  Wilson,  Pastor,  St.  John  Baptist  Church,  Dallas,  Texas 
spoke  three  times.  He  is  an  outstanding  preacher  in  the  National 
Baptist  Convention,  U.S.A.,  Inc. 

Dr.  Eual  Lawson,  Associate  Director,  Division  of  Evangelism,  Bap- 
tist Home  Mission  Board,  Atlanta,  Ga. 

Dr.  William  Bennett,  Pastor,  First  Baptist  Church,  Fort  Smith, 
Arkansas.  Dr.  Bennett  is  a  native  of  North  Carolina  and  served  as 
statewide  Chairman  of  Evangelism  before  leaving  the  state. 

Robert  A.  Bradley,  Director  of  Church  Music,  National  Baptist 
Convention,  U.S.A.,  Inc.  served  as  Song  Leader  and  Soloist  for  the 
Conference. 

Last  Report 

Since  I  am  retiring  as  Director  of  Evangelism  December  31,  1969 
and  this  is  my  final  report,  I  wish  to  say  that  the  burden  of  my 
heart  is  to  see  a  great  spiritual  revival  in  our  state,  nation  and  the 
world.  I  believe  the  revivals  that  were  experienced  last  spring  in 
certain  churches  in  the  state  are  assurances  from  God  that  we 
can  experience  such  revival  when  God's  people  seek  it  on  God's 
terms.  As  God  opens  doors  and  gives  me  strength,  I  hope  to  be  used 
of  Him  in  this  direction  in  the  days  ahead. 

D.  DIVISION  OF  CHURCH  PROGRAMS 

Nathan  C.  Brooks,  Jr.,  Director 

Burrel  Lucas,  formerly  an  associate,  became  Sunday  School  De- 
partment Secretary,  March  1,  1969.  He  succeeded  Dr.  Claude  White 
whose  death  was  reported  last  year. 

Joe  Stroud,  who  has  long  served  as  the  Church  Music  Depart- 
ment Secretary,  was  hospitalized  in  August.  In  early  October  he 
was  at  home  recovering  and  was  able  to  be  in  the  office  some. 

The  Department  Directors  have  reported  the  personnel  changes  in 
the  areas  of  their  responsibility. 

It  is  the  judgement  of  the  Division  Director  that  North  Carolina 
Baptists  are  being  served  by  an  excellent  staff  of  workers. 

The  Division  has  sponsored  Vacation  Week,  at  Fort  Caswell;  a 
Church  Administration  Conference  and  Deacons'  School  at  Fruit- 
land;  a  Statewide  Deacons'  Conference  at  Camp  CaRAway;  and 
several  Deacons'  Schools  in  various  parts  of  the  state. 

One  of  the  new  areas  of  service  has  been  the  cooperation  of  the 
North  Carolina  Baptist  Assembly  with  Shaw  University.  Between 
the  first  of  October  and  the  end  of  the  year,  Shaw  has  been  using 
the  Caswell  facility  in  Peace  Corps  training.

The  Division  continues  to  assist  individuals,  churches,  associations 
and  institutions  in  the  effort  to  bring  God  and  man  together  through 
Jesus  Christ. 

1.  Sunday  School  Department 

BuRREL  F.  Lucas,  Secretary 

Churches  must  teach  God's  message  to  the  world  as  recorded  in 
the  Bible.  This  teaching  is  done  with  the  hope  that  persons  may, 
under  the  leadership  of  the  Holy  Spirit,  be  led  to  respond  to  God 
with  maturing  faith,  love,  and  obedience.  The  basic  approach  of  the 
Bible  Teaching  Program  in  Sunday  School  consists  of  ongoing,  age- 
graded  Bible  classes  meeting  on  Sunday  morning,  or  in  some  mis- 
sion situations,  on  Sunday  afternoon.  Study  groups  meeting  during 
the  week  for  those  who  cannot  attend  on  Sunday  are  considered  a 
part  of  the  Sunday  School.  With  the  coming  of  the  program  for 
the  '70's  much  attention  will  be  given  to  Extension  activities  which 
call  for  various  means  of  Bible  study  during  the  week  with  all 
types  of  groups.  The  Sunday  School  Department  staff  is  committed 
to  the  objective  of  strengthening  the  church's  program  of  outreach 
as  well  as  lifting  the  level  of  Bible  teaching  throughout  our  state. 

Personnel 

The  Secretary  of  the  Department  was  named  on  March  1,  1969. 
He  was  serving  as  an  associate  in  the  Sunday  School  Department 
charged  with  associational  administration  and  Adult  consultant.  He 
came  to  the  Department  from  a  pastorate  in  Roanoke,  Virginia. 
Other  members  of  the  staff  include:  Mrs.  Myra  S.  Motley,  Con- 
sultant, Junior-Intermediate  work.  Vacation  Bible  School  and  Week- 
day education;  Miss  Hilda  Mayo,  Consultant,  Children's  work, 
Church  Library,  and  the  Ministry  to  the  Retarded;  Mr.  Richard  J. 
Brown,  Consultant,  Young  People's  work  and  Teacher-Training. 
The  dedicated  help  of  two  office  secretaries  make  possible  a  greater 
ministry.  These  are:  Mrs.  Barbara  Chason  and  Mrs.  Catharine  Watts. 

Throughout  the  year  our  ministries  to  the  associations  and 
churches  were  enlarged  through  the  help  of  special  workers.  These 
assisted  in  training  schools.  Vacation  Bible  Schools,  enlargement 
campaigns  and  other  areas  of  service.  They  are:  Mrs.  John  Moore, 
Mrs.  J.  C.  Price,  Jr.,  Mrs.  William  Spradlin,  Mrs.  Harold  West,  Mrs. 
Oliver  Davis,  Mrs.  Lester  White,  Mrs.  J.  H.  Mauney,  Mrs.  Henry

Dan  Page,  Harold  West,  Fritz  Hemphill,  W.  T.  Cockman,  Jack 
Clark  and  James  Maples. 

Ten  Regional  Superintendents  served  throughout  the  year  as 
they  were  needed  in  the  promotional  work  of  the  department: 
George  H.  Cooke,  John  Privott,  G.  Scott  Turner,  Jr.,  Alfred  Staley, 
James  M.  Lambert,  Norman  Brisson,  Billy  G.  Rivers,  Rexford 
Campbell,  William  Bowen,  Zeb  Baker  and  Robert  L.  Clegg.

The  aim  will  be  for  orientation  to  publications  and  administra- 
tion as  well  as  launching  an  outreach-visitation  program  for  the 
local  Sunday  School.  We  will  train  one  person  for  each  10  churches 
in  the  association.  These  "Visitor-Trainers"  will  be  selected  by  the 
Associational  Sunday  School  Superintendent  in  cooperation  with  the 
Associational  Missionary.  The  "Visitor-Trainer"  will  make  appoint- 
ments with  the  pastor  and  Sunday  School  superintendent  and  work 
with  them  in  ordering  literature,  surveying  space,  and  organizing 
an  outreach  program  geared  specifically  to  the  local  church.  These 
trainees  will  be  primarily  pastors. 

The  Sunday  School  Board,  cooperating  with  the  N.  C.  Baptist  Con- 
vention, will  bear  the  expenses  of  each  of  these  "Visitor-Trainers" 
both  in  their  individual  training  and  their  visiting  in  the  10  churches 
for  which  they  will  be  responsible. 

4.  Leadership  Preparation  Week  in  the  Local  Church — Septem-

2.  Church  Training  Department 

Sam  H.  O'Neal,  Secretary 

A  broader  base  of  training  and  development  continue  to  charac- 
terize the  Church  Training  Department.  A  larger  scope  of  Christian 
training,  enhanced  by  new  concepts,  improved  techniques,  and  im- 
proved materials  continue  to  unfold  and  make  the  Church  Training 
ministry  a  challenge.  With  this  enlarged  concept  it  seems  impera- 
tive that  every  pastor,  educational  director.  Church  Training  direc- 
tor, and  other  local  church  leader  must  avail  himself  of  every  oppor- 
tunity to  stay  abreast  of  what  is  taking  place  in  this  vital  phase  of 
Southern  Baptist  life. 

The  Church  Training  Department  is  implementing  and  making 
real  such  channeled  ministries  as  recreation-drama,  vocational  guid- 
ance, and  ministry  to  the  mentally  retarded  in  addition  to  the  pri- 
mary and  ongoing  program  of  Church  Member  Training,  New 
Church  Member  Orientation,  and  Church  Leader  Training.

Personnel 

The  assignment  of  this  department  continues  to  be  carried  out 
by  a  very  fine,  capable,  and  dedicated  staff.  In  addition  to  the 
Department  Secretary,  the  staff  consists  of  the  following:  K.  Mau- 
rice Cooper,  Director  of  Associational  Promotion  and  Adult  Work 
and  works  with  the  Department  Secretary  in  the  area  of  General 
Administration;  Davis  Bowen,  Director  of  Intra-Convention  Youth 
Ministry;  Miss  Judy  Hendrix,  Director  of  the  Children's  Division,  as

Division. 

In  addition  to  the  field  staff  the  department  is  served  by  two 
office  secretaries,  Miss  Diane  Averitte,  who  joined  the  department 
staff  on  May  12,  and  Mrs.  Sylvia  Sweeley,  who  joined  the  depart- 
ment on  October  15. 

Personnel  changes  during  the  year  were  as  follows:  Mrs.  Mary 
Conn,  office  secretary,  resigned  to  accept  the  position  of  office  sec- 
retary in  the  Raleigh  Baptist  Association;  Mr.  Gene  A.  Phillips,

Cooper,  Garner,  North  Carolina;  Mrs.  Sam  H.  O'Neal,  Garner,  North 
Carolina. 

1969  Activities 

The  year  1969  has  been  another  rewarding  and  challenging  year. 
The  department  continues  to  receive  calls  for  help  over  and  beyond 
that  which  it  is  able  to  meet.  This  is  most  gratifying  to  the  de- 
partment staff.  For  these  opportunities  of  service  the  staff  is  grateful 
and  offers  its  service  to  North  Carolina  Baptists  in  the  future. 
Call  upon  the  staff  at  any  time  it  can  render  service. 

Some  of  the  activities  last  year  were : 

1.  Two  Seminars  for  Workers  with  the  Mentally  Retarded 

2.  Ten  Regional  Convention  Planning  Meetings 

3.  Ten  Regional  Conventions  with  emphasis  upon  Family  Min- 
istry 

4.  Annual  Youth  Convention 

5.  Statewide  Briefing  Meeting  for  Associational  Officers 

6.  Fifteen  Associational  or  Leadership  Schools

13.  Special  group  composed  of  Regional  Directors  met  on  No- 
vember 8  to  study  future  of  Regional  Conventions 

14.  Committee  composed  of  Youth  Directors  and  young  people

Baptist  Youth  Corps 
One  of  the  great  challenges  of  the  Church  Training  Department 
has  been  the  assignment  of  the  Baptist  Youth  Corps  Ministry 
During  the  summer,  1969,  there  were  twenty-nine  students  in 
twenty-nine  churches  scattered  throughout  the  state.  Following  a 
recruitment  program  with  fine  cooperation  from  the  seven  Baptist 
colleges  of  North  Carolina  and  the  churches  involved  the  students 
participated  in  an  Orientation  Week  at  Fruitland  June  2-6.  The 
summer  program  was  climaxed  at  the  North  Carolina  Baptist  As- 
sembly with  the  Youth  Conference  the  week  of  August  4-8  with 
1,067  in  attendance. 

Statistically  Speaking 
The  Regional  Conventions  with  emphasis  on  Family  Living  en- 
rolled 1,875  persons  from  67  associations  and  301  churches.  The 
Youth  Convention,  which  was  held  at  the  First  Baptist  Church, 
Lumberton,  registered  1,155  from  124  churches  and  36  associations. 
The  summer  assembly  program,  including  three  assembly  weeks  at 
Caswell,  one  week  at  Fruitland,  a  Leadership  Institute  at  Fruitland, 
and  registration  at  Ridgecrest,  enrolled  2,701  from  54  associations 
and  220  churches;  Youth  Week  at  Caswell  enrolled  1,067  with  40 
associations  and  88  churches  represented.  The  "M"  Night  attendance 
for  1968  was  22,494  persons  from  1,096  churches  with  888  pastors 
and  788  directors  in  attendance. 

Future  Plans 

A  new  set  of  concept  books  and  age  characteristic  manuals  will 
be  released  in  January,  1970.  This  department  will  be  engaged  in 
the  "Shaping  the  Seventies"  Conferences  across  North  Carolina. 
Other  highlights  of  1970  will  be  the  Training  Ministry  Rallies: 
one  scheduled  for  Fayetteville,  February  23-26;  one  scheduled  for 
Winston-Salem,  September  14-18;  and  one  scheduled  for  Charlotte, 
October  26-30.  There  are  a  number  of  associational  emphases  already 
on  the  schedule,  as  well  as  the  summer  assembly  program,  the 
Youth  Convention,  and  the  Youth  Conference.  Plans  are  already 
underway  to  enlarge  the  scope  of  the  Baptist  Youth  Corps  Ministry. 

Indications  are  that  perhaps  1970  will  be  the  department's  most 
challenging  year.  The  Church  Training  Department  accepts  this 
challenge  with  keen  anticipation. 

3.  Department  of  Student  Work 

James  Y.  Greene 
I.  Ministry  on  Campus 

Baptist  Student  Union  and  the  ministry  of  the  staff  of  the  De- 
partment of  Student  Work  are  a  specialized  focus  of  the  denomina- 


142 


Baptist  State  Convention 


tion  as  it  seeks  to  work  with  those  in  the  academic  community. 
In  the  various  settings  this  campus  ministry  finds  varying  organiza- 
tional expressions  but  each  unit  operates  within  a  basic  philosophy 
and  guidelines  decided  upon  by  the  Convention. 

The  building  of  Christian  community  is  perhaps  the  major  em- 
phasis of  our  campus  ministry;  worship,  study,  service,  witness  and 
fellowship  are  other  major  facets  of  the  work. 

II.  Ministry  on  the  State  Level 

1.  The  Seminar  on  Christian  Social  Concerns:  Held  in  Washing- 
ton, D.  C.  with  eighteen  students  and  two  chaplains  participating. 
The  purpose  of  the  Seminar  was  an  attempt  to  understand  the 
problems  and  the  people  of  the  inner-city,  to  examine  the  programs 
and  converse  with  those  involved  in  ministering  to  these  people. 
Also  they  explored  the  role  and  activity  of  the  Baptist  denomination 
on  the  political  scene  as  well  as  the  role  of  government  in  the 
inner-city,  helping  the  students  to  gain  an  insight  into  their  respon- 
sibility as  Christians  in  this  dimension  of  our  social  concern. 

2.  Directors'  Seminar:  Held  January  19-23,  1969,  at  In-The-Oaks 
Episcopal  Center,  Black  Mountain,  N.  C.  Fifteen  chaplains  and  Stu- 
dent Department  personnel  participated  in  worship,  lectures,  dis- 
cussions, and  program  planning.  Dr.  James  T.  Laney,  Dean,  Candler 
School  of  Theology,  Emory  University,  Atlanta,  Georgia,  spoke  and 
led  discussions  on  "The  Ethics  of  Responsibility." 

3.  Pastors'  Symposia:  Held  February  24,  25,  27,  1969,  at  Fayette- 
ville,  Hazelwood,  and  Charlotte  respectively,  and  was  an  attempt  to 
explore  what  students  are  thinking  about  our  world  and  the  Chris- 
tian faith,  as  well  as  understand  differences  which  exist  between 
students  and  other  groups  in  our  society.  Dr.  L.  D.  Johnson,  Chap- 
lain, Furman  University,  Greenville,  S.  C.  and  Mr.  Howard  Bram- 
lette,  Baptist  Sunday  School  Board,  Nashville,  Tennessee,  spoke  on 
"The  Student  Mind"  and  "The  Student  and  Faith." 

4.  Spring  Conference:  Held  at  First  Baptist  Church,  Gastonia, 
April  18-20,  1969,  with  the  theme  "Journey  Inward-Journey  Out- 
ward." Miss  Elizabeth  O'Connor,  Staff,  Church  of  Our  Savior, 
Washington,  D.  C.  spoke  on  the  "Inward  Journey"  and  Dr.  Charles 
Gill,  Jr.,  Executive  Director,  Health  Planning  Office,  Prince  Georges 
County,  Maryland,  spoke  on  the  "Outward  Journey."  An  interac- 
tion panel  with  the  speakers,  a  regular  business  session,  and  wor- 
ship with  the  congregation  of  First  Baptist  Church,  Gastonia,  Dr. 
A.  Douglas  Aldrich,  Minister,  were  the  highlights  of  the  week-end 
conference. 

5.  The  Summer  Service  Programs: 

(1).  The  LISTEN  Program  (student  supported):  Five  students 
and  an  advisory  couple  spent  ten  weeks  working  with  the  Christian 
Social  Ministries  program  in  Fayetteville,  N.  C.  sponsored  by  the 
New  South  River  Association  and  the  Baptist  State  Convention. 
This  team  of  seven  lived  together  and  worked  with  some  of  the

The  discussions  were  led  by  the  chaplains  and  staff  and  Dr.  Charles 
Coleman,  Dean,  Shaw  University,  Raleigh,  was  the  featured  speaker. 

7.  Fall  Convention:  Held  November  7-9,  1969,  at  the  First  Baptist 
Church,  Durham.  Students  were  led  to  explore  their  attitudes, 
concerns,  and  responsibilities  in  relation  to  the  Christian  Faith.  Dr. 
James  T.  Laney,  Dean,  Candler  School  of  Theology,  Emory  Uni- 
versity, Atlanta,  Georgia,  was  a  featured  speaker.  The  students 
worshipped  with  the  congregation  of  the  First  Baptist  Church,  Dur- 
ham, with  Dr.  Laney  delivering  the  message.  Dr.  George  Kelsey, 
Professor  of  Christian  Ethics,  Drew  University,  Madison,  New  Jersey,

IV.  Personnel 

The  Department  of  Student  Work  is  grateful  for  the  following 
people  who  help  carry  on  the  ministry  to  Baptist  students  in  North 
Carolina  for  the  school  year  1969-70: 
William  M.  Bell,  Jr.,  Shaw  University 
Alton  Y.  Buzbee,  Campbell  College 
F.  Joseph  Clontz,  Jr.,  Western  Carolina  University

Charles  Francis  Wilson,  North  Carolina  Baptist  Hospital 
Kay  M.  Huggins,  Associate — Raleigh  Office 
Quentin  M.  Perreault,  Associate — Charlotte  Office 

4.  Church  Music  Department 

Joseph  O.  Stroud,  Secretary 

The  Church  Music  Department  has  had  a  good  year.  With  the 
excellent  help  of  Charles  Gatwood,  Associate  and  Director  of  As- 
sociational  Work,  and  Mrs.  Joan  BuUard,  Office  Secretary,  a  full 
schedule  of  activities  has  been  sponsored. 

Seventy-two  associations  now  have  some  music  organization  with 
activities  in  progress.  This  is  the  highest  number  we  have  ever  been 
able  to  report.  Many  music  schools,  conferences,  and  clinics  have 
been  held  in  associations,  regions,  and  churches.  With  the  assistance 
of  nine  Regional  Directors  and  approved  age  group  Consultants 
these  projects  have  gone  well,  and  for  the  most  part,  have  been 
well  attended.  We  are  learning  more  and  more  that  the  concept 
of  reaching  one  church  or  a  small  group  of  churches  proves  more 
effective  in  helping  the  churches  with  their  music  programs. 

Approximately  eighteen  hundred  persons  attended  the  two  weeks 
of  music  training  at  the  North  Carolina  Baptist  Assembly  at  South- 
port  and  the  two  weeks  at  Fruitland  Baptist  Conference  Center  at 
Hendersonville.  Two  additional  weeks  are  being  planned  for  the 
Fruitland  Conference  Center  next  summer. 

Some  of  the  most  challenging  opportunities  provided  the  Church 
Music  Department  each  year  continue  to  be  the  work  with  the  Di- 
vision of  Evangelism,  Vacation  Bible  School,  Sunday  School,  Wom- 
an's Missionary  Union,  the  Annual  Convention,  and  other  meetings.

Several  hundred  children's  workers  were  in  attendance  in  eight 
Children's  Music  Workshops  conducted  across  the  state  and  spon- 
sored jointly  by  the  Church  Music  Department,  Sunday  School  De- 
partment, and  Woman's  Missionary  Union.  Mr.  Saxe  Adams  of  the 
Baptist  Sunday  School  Board  was  the  guest  director  for  these 
workshops. 

The  department  seeks  to  serve  any  and  all  the  churches  affiliated 
with  the  Convention. 

5.  Church  Building  Planning  Department 

Richard  D.  Smith,  Secretary 

Church  buildings  of  the  future  should  be  so  constructed  that  a 
flexible  program  of  work  can  be  carried  on.  Church  buildings  should 
be  designed  to  meet  the  present  and  future  needs  of  the  church  and 
community.  In  order  to  accomplish  this,  the  structure  must  be  so 
constructed  that  changes  can  be  made  without  endangering  its 
occupants.  With  changes  occurring  in  population  and  programs,  the 
church  would  do  well  in  its  planning  to  prepare  for  them. 

Information  is  now  available  on  the  improved  programs  for  the 
70's.  Each  church  should  examine  its  existing  facilities  to  see  what, 
if  any,  changes  should  be  made.  The  suggested  square  footage  per 
person  is  being  increased  for  each  age  group.  Another  improvement 
will  be  in  the  age  span  of  nine  through  eleven  years.  No  longer 
will  small  rooms  be  suggested  for  these  ages.  All  departments  from 
birth  through  eleven  years  of  age  will  be  designed  for  open-room 
teaching.  Those  twelve  years  old  and  above  will  continue  to  have 
department  assemblies  and  classes. 

Financing  a  church  building  program  is  becoming  more  and  more 
challenging.  Financial  resources  for  churches  are  fewer  today  than 
one  year  ago.  This  change  has  forced  churches  to  look  within  for 
monies  rather  than  to  outside  sources.  For  some  this  has  meant  a 
delay  in  building;  for  others,  a  greater  sacrifice  or  determination 
of  church  members  to  support  their  church.  The  "Together  We 
Build"  program  for  raising  building  funds  has  already  helped  to 
provide  funds  for  a  number  of  our  churches.  This  fund-raising 
program  has  challenged  individuals  to  lift  their  level  of  giving  to 
meet  needs  locally  while  continuing  to  support  world  missions. 

This  is  the  time  to  plan,  to  take  the  long  look  into  the  future 
to  meet  the  challenging  changes  that  are  before  us.  To  provide 
adequately  for  all  ages  and  all  programs  of  work  is  indeed  the 
task  that  we  have  at  hand.  The  Church  Building  Planning  Depart- 
ment personnel  is  eager  to  assist  any  church  in  meeting  these 
needs. 

6.  Brotherhood  Department 

J.  Edwin  Bullock,  Secretary 

Although  the  Brotherhood  Department  sponsored  some  of  the  best 
attended  workshops,  mission  rallies,  and  a  record  number  of  camps 
and  assemblies,  the  most  significant  achievement  in  1969  has  been 
the  growing  acceptance  of  the  missions  objective  by  the  men  in  the

Baptist  State  Convention 


churches.  In  spite  of  the  fact  that  Brotherhood  has  in  times  past 
been  thought  of  as  having  many  purposes,  the  men  are  coming  to 
see  that  the  primary  purpose  is  the  providing  of  the  church  with 
a  missions  program  for  men  and  boys  and  a  missions  outreach  j 
through  men  and  boys.  During  1969  there  has  been  an  obvious 
improvement  in  the  work  of  the  Baptist  Men's  units  in  the  churches 
as  the  men  have  done  a  more  effective  work  in  planning  mission 
study  and  become  increasingly  involved  in  needed  mission  minis- 
tries. With  the  firm  belief  that  the  most  effective  mission  work  can 
more  frequently  be  achieved  when  the  lay  people  accept  their  role 
as  missionaries,  it  is  the  hope  of  the  Brotherhood  Department  staff 
that  this  type  of  mission  concern  and  mission  activity  can  have  con- 
tinued development  among  the  men  and  boys  in  1970. 

Leadership  Training 

The  Brotherhood  Specialist  program  initiated  within  the  last  five 
years  with  the  idea  of  using  elected  and  interested  volunteers  with 
a  purpose  of  increasing  a  volume  of  leadership  training  was  en-  t 
larged  upon  in  1969.  The  Specialist  program  adds  to  the  established 
approach  of  training  elected  associational  leadership  for  the  pur- 
pose of  providing  leadership  training  in  the  association  and  churches 
during  a  given  year.  Approximately  175  associational  officers  and 
selected  Specialists  received  this  preparatory  training  in  two  dif- 
ferent sessions  during  the  fall  of  1969.  In  turn,  these  leaders  taught 
Baptist  Men  and  Royal  Ambassador  principles  in  more  than  40  as- 
sociational and  small  group  workshops  during  the  fall  season. 

In  the  area  of  Royal  Ambassador  counselor  training  the  Depart- 
ment also  provided  ten  other  regional  training  courses  for  Royal 
Ambassador  counselors  during  the  year.  The  Specialist  team  ap- 
proach along  with  the  staff  enabled  the  Department  to  go  directly 
to  over  two  hundred  churches  during  the  year  with  leadership 
training.  i 

Other  specialized  training  during  the  year  had  to  do  with  the 
training  of  Foreign  Mission  study  teachers,  laymen  for  the  purpose 
of  bringing  state  mission  messages,  and  laymen  to  work  in  a  more 
informed  way  with  the  ongoing  prison  ministry  program  sponsored 
by  the  Brotherhood  Department.  The  special  training  related  to  the 
ministry  to  inmates,  releasees,  and  their  families  was  provided  as  a 
part  of  the  Metropolitan  Mission  Action  Conference  meeting  in  Dur- 
ham February  24-25,  1969. 

Mission  Emphasis  Meetings 
In  the  category  of  state  meetings,  1969  marks  the  year  of  a 
record-breaking  attendance  at  the  Baptist  Men  and  Boys  Conven-  j 
tion  in  Winston-Salem  March  28  and  29.  There  were  over  seven  | 
thousand  men  and  boys  who  attended  the  Convention  jointly  spon-  | 
sored  by  the  Brotherhood  Department  and  the  Layman's  League 
of  the  General  Convention.  The  theme  of  the  Convention  in  keep-  | 
ing  with  the  crusade  year  was  "Christ,  the  Only  Hope."  The  City  j 
Coliseum  was  filled  with  men  and  boys  on  Friday  night  as  were  the  j 
auditoriums  of  First  Baptist  Church  and  the  Sheraton  Hotel  on

Saturday  morning.  The  State  Brotherhood  officers  agreed  that  the 
missions  centered  program  was  well  received. 

Another  first  in  the  spring  of  1969  was  the  State  Royal  Am- 
bassador Track  Meet.  Rules  and  regulations  were  established  and 
promoted  for  associational  track  meets,  and  only  the  winner  in  the 
associational  meets  could  participate  in  the  state  meet  at  Wake 
Forest  University  May  17,  1969.  Twenty  associations  were  repre- 
sented and  over  five  hundred  Royal  Ambassadors  attended.  The 
boys  were  greeted  by  two  SBC  Foreign  Missionaries.  The  Royal 
Ambassador  track  team  from  the  South  Yadkin  Association  was 
the  winner  of  the  first  track  meet  trophy. 

Royal  Ambassadors  had  the  privilege  of  visiting  three  Baptist 
colleges  in  the  fall  of  1969.  On  each  occasion  there  was  a  special 
program  in  the  chapel,  opportunity  to  view  the  campus,  and  the 
privilege  of  seeing  a  football  game. 

The  year  1969  was  also  another  good  year  for  mission  retreats  at 
Camp  CaRAway.  There  was  the  third  annual  Senior  Citizens  Re- 
treat and  the  traditional  Family  Camping  Weekend,  once  again  en- 
joyed by  a  good  number  of  men  and  their  families  during  the 
spring.  In  the  fall,  there  was  another  very  fine  Baptist  Men's 
Retreat.  In  all  of  the  retreats  there  were  guest  missionaries  and 
mission  action  orientated  programs. 

The  denominational  emphasis  on  missions  during  1969  gave  the 
Brotherhood  Department  some  additional  responsibilities  in  the  area 
of  promotion.  For  conferences  related  to  this  emphasis  and  pro- 
moted by  the  Department  were  the  SBC  World  Missions  Week  at 
Ridgecrest  during  the  summer,  the  National  Baptist  Men's  Confer- 
ence on  Evangelism  in  Nashville,  Tennessee,  also  held  in  the  early 
summer,  the  World  Mission  Conferences  sponsored  by  the  Division 
of  Missions  held  in  four  North  Carolina  churches  during  the  fall, 
and  the  National  Conference  on  World  Missions  for  Youth  and 
Young  Adults  held  in  Atlanta,  December  28-30,  1969. 

Camps  and  Assemblies 

The  Brotherhood  Department  provided  staff  and  programs  for 
ten  weeks  of  Royal  Ambassador  Camps  at  Camp  CaRAway  during 
1969.  There  was  a  weekend  camp  for  boys  in  the  spring,  and  a 
total  of  over  1,200  boys  had  mission  experiences  at  the  state  Royal 
Ambassador  camp  during  the  summer. 

An  additional  staff  and  program  was  provided  for  five  other 
Royal  Ambassador  camp  weeks  during  the  summer.  Three  of  these 
were  at  Truett  Camp  near  Hayesville  while  the  other  two  were  at 
North  Carolina  Assembly  and  Fruitland  Conference  Center.  Another 
three  hundred  boys  were  involved  in  these  camping  experiences. 

Along  with  Woman's  Missionary  Union  and  the  Division  of  Mis- 
sions, the  Brotherhood  Department  provided  two  World  Mission 
Weeks  during  the  summer.  These  weeks  provided  family  and  church 
groups  at  the  North  Carolina  Assembly  and  the  Fruitland  Confer- 
ence Center  with  the  privilege  of  furthering  their  missions  under- 
standing and  appreciation  by  sharing  in  the  well-planned  missions 


148 


Baptist  State  Convention 


program.  There  seemed  to  be  a  real  appreciation  in  these  confer- 
ences for  the  privilege  of  bringing  family  and  church  groups  to- 
gether with  the  privilege  of  meeting  missionaries  and  increasing 
concern  among  those  attending  in  behalf  of  missions. 

With  a  large  number  of  programs  during  a  given  church  year 
and  with  a  tremendous  task  of  promoting  missionary  education  and 
mission  activity  among  the  men  and  boys  in  the  churches  across 
the  state,  promotion  is  a  big  factor  in  the  Brotherhood  work  during 
each  year.  During  the  year  of  1969  a  number  of  approaches  have 
been  used  in  promoting  all  programs,  and  if  it  had  not  been  for  a 
variety  of  such  approaches,  very  little  success  could  have  been  at- 
tained. Most  noteworthy  of  these  approaches  has  been  a  department 
newsletter  which  has  been  produced  approximately  every  two 
months  during  the  year.  Each  of  the  newsletters  during  1969  has 
been  packed  with  information  and  has  carried  information  to  a 
group  of  lay  people  that  most  frequently  do  not  receive  so  many 
of  the  other  Baptist  news  items. 

The  most  notable  thing  that  can  be  said  about  the  Brotherhood 
program  as  we  enter  the  seventies  is  that  the  program  seems  to 
be  on  the  move.  Although  the  program  is  to  encounter  some 
changes,  these  are  actually  more  in  the  area  of  refinements  and 
improvements.  The  one  notable  addition  to  the  Brotherhood  pro- 
gram, which  might  be  a  bit  frightening  to  some  of  the  churches,  is 
the  assignment  of  the  six,  seven,  and  eight  year  old  mission  unit 
for  boys  to  the  Brotherhood  leadership.  Since  this  is  to  be  done 
administratively  through  the  creation  of  or  the  strengthening  of  a 
church  Royal  Ambassador  Committee  and  since  there  is  a  recom- 
mendation for  co-counselors  (men  and  women)  there  is  every  rea- 
son to  believe  that  this  transferal  from  WMU  will  be  made  suc- 
cessfully. Improved  tools  and  recommendations  for  a  work  which 
already  seems  to  be  on  the  upswing  gives  every  indication  that 
1970  should  be  another  challenging  and  rewarding  year  for  the 
Brotherhood  program  and  the  missions  cause  throughout  the  North 
Carolina  churches. 

7.  Woman's  Missionary  Union 

Auxiliary  to  the  Baptist  State  Convention 
Mrs.  R.  Knolan  Benfield,  President 
Sara  Ann  Hobbs,  Executive  Secretary 

Woman's  Missionary  Union  has  weathered  the  year  of  ''changes 
and  choices."  It  is  too  early  yet  to  assess  the  effect  of  new  plans 
introduced  last  year  but  some  trends  are  evident.  Membership 
dropped.  This  is  not  new  since  decreases  in  enrollment,  for  most 
of  the  church  program  organizations,  have  been  occurring  for  several 
years.  Women  were  asked  to  choose  areas  of  participation  and  en- 
roll anew  in  the  organization.  Many  who  did  not  choose  were  sim- 
ply dropped  from  the  roll.  Some  had  participated  casually  and  used 
this  reorganization  as  the  time  to  withdraw  from  membership. 
Giving  increased.  The  Lottie  Moon  Christmas  Offering  for  Foreign 


OF  North  Carolina 


149 


Missions  increased  3V2  per  cent  to  a  total  of  $1,560,695.  The  Annie 
Armstrong  Easter  Offering  for  Home  Missions  increased  $14,353 
over  1968  to  a  total  of  $450,430  by  September  1.  Books  close  on  this 
offering  December  31.  The  only  exception  has  been  the  Heck- Jones 
Memorial  Offering  for  WMU  Promotion  which  experienced  a  sig- 
nificant decrease.  This  will  be  discussed  more  fully  in  another  sec- 
tion of  this  report.  Significant  involvement  in  vfiission  action  has 
occurred.  Verbal  and  written  reports  from  churches  indicate  that 
women  are  participating  enthusiastically  in  mission  action  to  persons 
of  special  need  in  their  respective  communities.  Literacy  classes, 
work  with  internationals,  ministry  to  the  aging,  witnessing  to  mi- 
nority groups  and  youth  are  but  a  few  of  the  areas  in  which  women 
are  finding  satisfying  places  to  serve.  Observation  and  private  con- 
versations indicate  that  women  have  passed  the  period  of  anxiety 
and  fear  of  the  new  organizational  structure  and  are  ready  to  move 
forward  in  service. 

Camp  Mundo  Vista  Opens 

Woman's  Missionary  Union  opened  Camp  Mundo  Vista  at  Ashe- 
boro  April  18  when  the  Sunbeam  Band  Day  Camp  Workshop  was 
held  with  18  women  in  attendance.  Bernice  Popham,  Sunbeam 
Band  director,  directed  this  workshop. 

Eight  weeks  of  GA  camps  began  on  June  15.  During  the  eight 
weeks  approximately  1,600  girls  attended  one  of  the  week  long 
camps.  Staff  consisted  of  State  WMU  personnel,  50  high  school,  col- 
lege and  seminary  students  and  29  missionaries  and  international 
students  representing  14  countries.  These  camps  were  under  the  di- 
rection of  Jolene  Ivey,  who  came  to  North  Carolina  as  State  Girls' 
Auxiliary  director  in  June. 

Woman's  Missionary  Union  provided  GA  camp  scholarships  for 
30  girls  from  9  counties  who  were  chosen  by  the  Board  of  Public 
Welfare  in  each  county.  Scholarships  included  travel  expenses,  room 
and  board  at  camp,  and  $5  spending  money.  The  girls  chosen  were 
ones  who  would  not  have  had  the  opportunity  to  attend  camp  any 
other  way.  Significant  spiritual  growth  was  seen  in  several  of  those 
attending  on  scholarship. 

One  YWA  retreat  was  held  at  Mundo  Vista  with  approximately 
150  YWA  members  in  attendance.  Under  the  direction  of  Linda 
Warren,  State  YWA  director,  the  program  featured  career  mis- 
sionaries, a  missionary  journeyman,  and  medical  personnel  who  had 
served  as  special  project  workers  under  the  Foreign  Mission  Board. 

A  Mission  Action  Workshop  was  planned  for  WMU-WMS  leader- 
ship, September  26-27,  under  the  direction  of  Kathryn  Bullard, 
WMS  director,  with  204  women  present.  Instructions  were  given  for 
surveying  community  needs  and  enlisting  and  organizing  women 
for  participation  in  mission  action.  Betty  Jo  Corum,  director.  Edi- 
torial Services,  WMU,  Birmingham  and  Rebecca  Martin,  director. 
Cooperative  Ministries,  Madison  Baptist  Association,  Huntsville,  Ala- 
bama, led  conferences.

Baptist  State  Convention 


Leadership  Training 
Field  service  personnel  from  Woman's  Missionary  Union  taught 
leadership  courses  or  led  leadership  conferences  in  20  associations. 
Workshops  for  Associational  Leaders  were  held  at  First  Baptist 
Church,  Hickory,  August  22-23,  with  224  associational  leaders  pres- 
ent, and  at  First  Baptist  Church,  Rocky  Mount,  September  5-6,  with 
163  associational  leaders  present. 

State  Meetings 

The  State  WMU  Annual  Session,  held  at  Ovens  Auditorium  in 
Charlotte,  attracted  2,000  women.  Six  areas  of  mission  work  were 
represented  by  the  six  missionaries  who  spoke. 

The  State  YWA  Convention,  under  the  direction  of  Linda  War- 
ren, YWA  director,  was  attended  by  1,286  YWAs  and  leaders.  First 
Baptist  Church  in  Greensboro  was  the  site  of  the  meeting. 

Budget  and  Finance 
Woman's  Missionary  Union  receives  funds  for  operation  through 
two  sources:  the  Cooperative  Program  from  which  are  paid  sal- 
aries, travel  expenses  and  operation  (postage,  printing,  rent  on  of- 
fice spaces,  telephone),  and  the  Heck- Jones  Memorial  Offering  for 
WMU  Promotion  from  which  all  special  projects  and  activities  are 
financed.  The  goal  for  the  Heck- Jones  Offering  for  1969  was  $65,- 
000,  $32,500  for  promotion  activities  and  camps  and  conferences, 
and  $32,500  for  repayment  of  the  loans  on  Camp  Mundo  Vista. 
There  was  a  very  decided  decrease  in  the  offering  with  only  $45,281 
having  been  received  as  of  October  1,  1969.  This  $20,000  deficit 
will  seriously  hamper  efforts  to  repay  the  $325,000  indebtedness 
of  Woman's  Missionary  Union. 

A  Look  Ahead 

In  spite  of  losses  during  the  past  year  WMU  leadership  is  opti- 
mistic about  the  future.  Goals  for  1970  include: 

...  a  WMU  director  in  each  church 

.  .  .  payment  of  the  camp  indebtedness  within  two  years 

.  .  .  full  interpretation  of  WMU  in  the  70s. 

A  WMU  director  in  each  church.  The  beginning  point  for  WMU 
in  a  church  is  the  election  of  a  WMU  director.  She  is  needed  if  she 
is  the  only  officer  WMU  has.  She  is  needed  if  there  is  one  WMU 
age-level  organization  or  15  age-level  organizations. 

Payment  of  the  camp  indebtedness  within  two  years.  In  January, 
WMU  will  introduce  "Operation  Pay-Off."  Each  church  WMU  will 
be  asked  to  set  a  goal  of  $1  per  WMU  member  for  the  Heck- Jones 
Memorial  Offering  for  WMU  Promotion  for  two  consecutive  years. 
Therefore,  if  a  WMU  (WMS,  YWA,  GA,  SB)  has  a  total  member- 
ship of  243  the  Heck-Jones  Offering  goal  would  be  $243  for  1970 
and  $243  for  1971.  With  such  a  program  the  160,000  WMU  members 


OF  North  Carolina 


151 


could  erase  this  indebtedness  in  two  years.  September,  1971  has 
been  set  as  the  "pay-off"  date. 

Full  interpretation  of  WMU  in  the  70s.  Beginning  in  January, 
1970,  Woman's  Missionary  Union  will  work  with  other  church  pro- 
gram organizations  of  the  Baptist  State  Convention  in  interpreting 
the  new  age-grading  system,  new  organization  names  and  new 
materials.  Four  distinct  types  of  leadership  meetings  will  be  offered 
to  WMU  leadership : 

1.  SHAPING  THE  SEVENTIES  CONFERENCES  (3)  January 
For:  Team  of  nine  chosen  from  each  association.  One  will 

represent  WMU. 
Led  by:  Representatives  of  Sunday  School  Board,  Brotherhood 
Commission  and  Woman's  Missionary  Union. 

2.  SHAPING  THE  SEVENTIES  CLINICS  (one  in  each  associa- 
tion) February-March 

For:  Church  Program  directors.  WMU  Council  members  should 
attend. 

Led  by:  Team  who  attended  State  Shaping  the  Seventies  Con- 
ferences. 

3.  CHURCH  LEADERSHIP  CONFERENCES  (8)  March-April 
For:   Church  Program  directors  and  leaders.  WMU,  WMS, 

YWA,  GA,  SB  directors,  WMS  presidents  are  eligible  to  at- 
tend the  WMU  conference. 
Led  by:  State  WMU  personnel. 

4.  ASSOCIATIONAL  WMU  ANNUAL  MEETINGS  (one  in  each 
association)  April-May 

For :  All  WMU  members 

Led  by:  State  WMU  personnel.  A  representative  from  the 
State  WMU  Office  will  attend  each  meeting  and  lead  an 
interpretation  conference  of  1-2  hours. 

Woman's  Missionary  Union  is  aware  of  the  many  pastors  who 
daily  give  encouragement  and  support  to  the  missions  organizations 
in  their  churches.  As  WMU  assists  the  church  in  fulfilling  its  mis- 
sion through  missions  education  and  involvement  in  service,  she 
counts  heavily  on  your  prayers  and  interest.  Her  leadership  pledges 
you  their  energies  and  abilities  that  through  mutual  assistance  your 
church  may  become  the  ministering,  witnessing  institution  that  it 
ought  to  be. 

8.  Camps  and  Retreats 

B.  W.  Jackson,  Director 

Camp  CaRAway  is  the  base  of  operation  for  the  ministry  of  this 
department,  and  much  of  the  work  centers  around  the  operation  of 
the  camp.  The  ten  weeks  of  Royal  Ambassador  camps  brought  about 
one  thousand  campers  from  about  one  hundred  and  eighty  churches 
across  the  state.  These  camps  were  served  by  a  staff  of  college  and 
high  school  students  and  other  program  leaders. 

I Also,  the  department  provided  general  maintenance  supervision 


152 


Baptist  State  Convention 


to  Camp  Mundo  Vista  during  the  summer  and  schedules  and  super- 
vises all  off-season  use  of  Camp  Mundo  Vista. 

Camps  CaRAway  and  Mundo  Vista  are  being  widely  used  dur- 
ing off  season  by  groups  for  retreats  and  leadership  meetings.  Camp 
CaRAway  facilities  were  used  and  meals  served  on  all  but  four 
weekends  or  weeks  during  the  past  year.  More  than  four  thousand 
came  during  these  off-season  meetings. 

Other  specific  services  of  the  department  include : 

1.  Construction  of  Camp  Mundo  Vista 

2.  Work  on  J.  J.  Johnson  Assembly  of  the  General  Baptist  Con- 
vention 

3.  Construction  of  the  Family  Camp  at  Camp  CaRAway 

Earl  Underwood  is  assistant  in  charge  of  maintenance.  Matthew 
Marlowe  is  cook.

Following  a  fire  which  destroyed  much  of  the  public  school  fa- 
cility in  Southport,  the  school  board  was  offered  the  use  of  part  of 
the  Assembly  property.  This  has  continued  into  the  1969-1970 
school  year,  and  will  probably  continue  for  all,  or  part,  of  the 
1970-1971  year.  Building  of  a  new  school  in  Southport  is  still  in  the 
planning  stage. 

Beginning  in  October,  1969,  a  contract  with  Shaw  University  has 
permitted  that  school  to  carry  on  a  Peace  Corps  Training  Program 
at  the  Assembly. 

In  both  cases  (the  public  school,  and  Shaw  University)  the  fa- 
cility has  been  made  available  for  $1.00  per  year,  with  the  school 
taking  care  of  all  necessary  expense  of  operation. 

Information  about  reservations  during  the  regular  season,  or  in- 
quiries about  off-season  usage,  should  be  addressed  to  the  North 
Carolina  Baptist  Assembly,  Southport,  North  Carolina  28461.  Tele- 
phone: (919)  278-5495. 


10.  Fruitland  Baptist  Conference  Center 

E.  Gary  Harthcock,  Manager 
Alex  L.  Booth,  Jr.,  Assistant  Manager 

The  word  that  best  describes  the  1969  summer  season  at  Fruit- 
land  is  transition.  This  is  reflected  in  the  new  name,  the  aims  of 
the  summer  ministry  and  the  attendance  figure. 

Seeking  to  coordinate  the  various  summer  activities  of  the  Baptist 
State  Convention,  the  Division  of  Church  Programs  altered  some- 
what the  format  at  Fruitland.  The  summer  objective  now  at  this 
facility  is  to  reach  more  adults  for  leadership  training  through  the 
media  of  special  conferences  and  special  programs  of  training.  The 
Royal  Ambassador  and  Girls'  Auxiliary  programs  are  now  con- 
ducted at  their  new  facilities  near  Asheboro,  North  Carolina.  These 
are  known  as  camps.  With  an  area  camp  program  for  boys  also  at 
Camp  Truett  and  the  State  Assembly  at  Fort  Caswell,  the  leader- 
ship in  the  departments  concerned  has  designated  the  ministry  near 
Hendersonville  as  Fruitland  Baptist  Conference  Center. 

There  were  ten  weeks  of  activity  at  Fruitland  during  the  summer. 
A  summary  of  conferences  and  the  persons  who  registered  is  given 
below.

11.  Department  of  Statistics  and  Survey 

Ted  W.  Williams,  Secretary 

The  work  of  the  department  is  basically  the  same  each  year.  The 
regular  responsibilities  include  the  keeping  of  current  mailing  lists, 
preparing  the  Baptist  Diary  and  supervising  its  distribution,  super- 
vising publication  and  distribution  of  the  Convention  Annual,  con- 
ducting certain  statistical  studies,  and  assisting,  upon  invitation, 
churches  and/ or  associations  in  planning  and  tabulating  various 
types  of  surveys. 

Close  contact  is  maintained  with  the  Research  and  Statistics  De- 
partment of  the  Baptist  Sunday  School  Board  in  Nashville  and  with 
the  clerks  of  the  various  associations.  The  resulting  team  spirit  pro- 
motes fast  and  efficient  gathering  of  data  for  inclusion  in  the  Con- 
vention Annual.  The  department  is  especially  grateful  to  the  associa- 
tional  clerks  for  their  fine  cooperation. 

Constant  effort  is  made  to  improve  the  service  of  the  depart- 
ment. Mrs.  Carl  Lusk  is  the  very  efficient  office  secretary. 

E.  THE  DIVISION  OF  STEWARDSHIP  PROMOTION 

O.  J.  Hagler,  Director 

The  basic  and  fundamental  purpose  of  the  Division  of  Stewardship 
Promotion  is  to  share  with  our  Baptist  people,  their  churches  and 


OF  North  Carolina 


155 


associations  a  well  defined  and  workable  plan  for  Christian  steward- 
ship. We  promote  the  Cooperative  Program  and  the  Special  Offer- 
ing for  State  Missions  in  the  3,400  Baptist  churches  of  North  Caro- 
lina. Likewise,  we  have  a  sympathetic  attitude  and  cooperative 
feeling  for  the  seven  approved  offerings  for  the  Social  Services 
Institutions,  Christian  Higher  Education,  and  World  Missions. 

To  accomplish  our  purpose  we  cooperate  with  the  Stewardship 
Commission  of  the  Southern  Baptist  Convention  and  all  other  com- 
missions, agencies,  and  institutions  in  the  Southern  Baptist  Con- 
vention. 

The  Director  of  the  Division  must  be  thoroughly  familiar  and 
adept  in  carrying  forward  these  efforts.  He  gives  guidance,  direc- 
tion, and  supervision  in  the  planning  and  implementation  of  the 
various  programs  of  the  departments.  Detailed  reports  from  each 
department  follow  and  should  give  the  reader  an  idea  of  the  vast 
scope  and  actual  services  which  we  try  to  render. 

Mrs.  Lacy  Coates  is  Division  Secretary  for  office  personnel.  No 
finer  spirit  of  cooperation,  understanding  and  helpfulness  could 
exist  among  all  personnel. 

At  this  writing,  October  8,  Cooperative  Program  receipts  are 
7.70  per  cent  ahead  of  1968 — or  a  total  of  $4,750,726.34  toward  a 
budgeted  goal  $6,700,000.  Special  offerings  amounted  to  $2,399,578.36 
— 9.46  per  cent  more  than  1968.  Total  Cooperative  Program  gifts 
and  designations  make  a  total  of  $7,150,304.70  —  8.29  per  cent 
over  1968.  Given  good  weather  and  faithfulness  on  the  part  of  all 
churches  and  a  special  effort  on  the  part  of  church  treasurers  to 
forward  all  mission  gifts  —  Cooperative  Program  and  special  desig- 
nations —  to  get  these  funds  in  to  the  Business  Manager's  office 
by  noon,  December  31,  we  should  reach  ten  million  dollars  or 
more! 

1.  Department  of  Stewardship  Promotion 

Harold  M.  White,  Secretary 

Perhaps  at  no  other  time  has  there  been  more  interest  in  budget 
planning,  promoting  and  pledging  in  the  churches  of  the  Baptist 
State  Convention  of  North  Carolina.  This  is  rightly  so,  because  never 
before  have  there  been  such  unparalleled  needs. 

New  buildings  are  needed — local  programs  must  be  enlarged — 
world  mission  needs  are  increasing.  All  of  these  require  committed 
Christians  and  dedicated  resources.  The  need  of  the  churches  and 
their  mission  programs  for  additional  funds  is  tremendous,  almost 
overwhelming.  But  greater  still  is  the  need  to  deepen  the  spiritual 
lives  of  the  members  by  leading  them  at  least  to  the  minimum  level 
of  Christian  stewardship,  which  is  the  tithe. 

The  Department  of  Stewardship  Promotion  was  created  to  assist 
churches  in  developing  their  members  in  total  Biblical  stewardship 
and  to  advance  world  mission  causes  through  the  Cooperative 
Program.  To  achieve  these  objectives  workshops,  conferences  and 
training  sessions  are  conducted  for  the  following  stewardship  pro- 
grams : 


156 


Baptist  State  Convention 


1.  The  Forward  Program  of  Christian  Stewardship  is  the  best  and 
most  complete  stewardship  emphasis  for  larger  churches.  It  has  been 
rewritten  and  updated. 

2.  Growth  in  Christian  Stewardship  is  a  complete  program  for 
churches  up  to  300  in  membership. 

3.  Tithers  Enrollment  Week  is  designed  to  challenge  church 
members  to  give  at  least  a  tithe. 

4.  Weekend  Stewardship  Revival  is  a  program  of  preaching, 
teaching  and  cottage  prayer  meetings.  It  helps  a  church  challenge 
its  members  to  be  faithful  stewards. 

5.  Stewardship  Development  for  Baptist  Associations  is  a  program 
to  help  associations  develop  and  undergird  associational  budgets. 
It  also  strengthens  the  association  in  its  ministry  to  local  churches. 

Many  years  of  use  by  an  increasing  number  of  churches  and  pas- 
tors prove  the  integrity  and  validity  of  these  programs.  The  re- 
ports we  receive  from  the  churches  indicate  an  increase  in  financial 
strength  and  a  deepening  of  spiritual  life  resulting  from  the  use  of 
a  well-planned  and  challenging  stewardship  emphasis.  Many 
churches  have  doubled  their  offerings  and  therefore  their  mission 
giving  is  substantially  increased. 

Each  year  we  furnish  information  on  the  per  church  member 
gross  income  for  every  county  in  North  Carolina,  and  for  cities 
above  10,000  in  population.  Income  is  now  at  an  all-time  high  and 
the  challenge  before  us  is  to  lead  North  Carolina  Baptists  to  under- 
stand the  mission  of  the  church  at  home  and  around  the  world  and 
to  commit  themselves  to  share  in  that  mission  by  worshiping  the 
Lord  week  by  week  with  their  tithes  and  offerings. 

Free  stewardship  and  Cooperative  Program  tracts,  brochures  and 
pamphlets  are  available  from  this  office  to  associations  and  churches 
upon  request.  Requests  for  these  materials  have  steadily  increased 
in  recent  years. 

This  department  is  ably  assisted  by  E.  Cleve  Wilkie,  Kinston, 
Associate  in  Field  Promotion,  and  Mrs.  Dorothy  Smith,  office  sec- 
retary. 

Our  work  has  been  made  more  effective  through  the  cooperation 
of  pastors,  superintendents  of  missions  and  associational  leaders  who 
have  opened  doors  of  opportunity  for  service. 

I  sincerely  appreciate  the  assistance  of  Dr.  Perry  Crouch,  General 
Secretary,  Mr.  O.  J.  Hagler,  Division  Director,  and  other  staff 
members.  It  is  a  privilege  to  serve  North  Carolina  Baptists  and  1 
am  grateful  for  the  opportunities  of  working  with  them. 

2.  Department  of  Stewardship  Promotion 

E.  C.  Wilkie,  Associate 

I'm  now  in  my  13th  year  of  service  to  North  Carolina  Baptists 
through  the  Stewardship  Division,  but  I  certainly  do  not  feel  "un- 
lucky." On  the  contrary,  my  gratitude  and  pleasure  are  deeper 
than  ever,  and  I  continue  to  be  amazed  at  how  "lucky"  I  am  to 


OF  North  Carolina 


157 


have  the  privileges  and  opportunities  that  accompany  the  humble 
position  I  occupy.  My  appreciation  and  love  for  North  Carolina 
Baptists  increase  with  each  passing  year. 

My  work  this  past  year  has  been  wide  and  varied,  touching  all 
sections  of  the  state,  involving  over  25,000  miles  of  driving  and 
speaking  in  over  125  of  our  churches,  and  making  contact  with 
hundreds  of  others  through  group  meetings  and  field  promotion. 

A  list  of  the  "different"  services  would  be  long,  indeed,  but  a 
partial  listing  includes  the  following:  Stewardship  clinics,  seminars, 
and  workshops;  week-long  and  week-end  Stewardship  Emphases; 
fellowship  suppers;  study  courses;  mission  camps;  Schools  for  dea- 
cons; deacon  retreats;  evangelistic  revivals;  schools  of  missions;  pas- 
tors conferences;  pulpit  supply;  annual  associational  meetings;  group 
and  individual  conferences;  literature  distribution;  and  many  de- 
nominational meetings  and  conventions  for  planning,  instruction 
and  inspiration. 

Much  of  this  has  been  in  conjuction  with  my  fellow  workers  in 
the  Stewardship  Division,  especially  O.  J.  Hagler,  our  Director, 
Harold  White  and  Tom  Greene,  for  whom  I  express  my  profound 
admiration  and  gratitude. 

And  to  all  the  pastors,  leaders,  churches  and  associations  who 
have  used  me  in  the  work,  my  thanks.  I  look  forward  to  greater 
service  in  the  months  ahead  as  I  continue  to  be  expendable  for  the 
Glory  of  God  among  our  great  people. 

3.  Department  of  Stewardship  Development 

R.  Tom  Greene,  Secretary 

The  development,  production,  and  distribution  of  materials  for 
the  promotion  of  biblical  stewardship,  Cooperative  Program  enlist- 
ment and  the  Special  Offering  for  State  Missions  is  the  basic  func- 
tion of  this  department.  The  work  during  the  past  twelve  months 
may  be  divided  as  follows : 

I.  Leaflets 

We  have  developed  in  cooperation  with  Mr.  O.  J.  Hagler  and 
others  in  this  Division,  and  distributed  leaflets  as  follows : 

283,000  Basic  Cooperative  Program  leaflets  and  posters. 
215,000  State  Missions  leaflets  and  posters. 

367,000  Other  leaflets,  programs,  and  booklets  on  Stewardship, 
State  Missions,  and  Cooperative  Program. 

n.  Seminars 

We  held  Stewardship  Development  Seminars  for  leaders  from 
each  association.  During  the  seminars  we : 

1.  Explained  and  distributed  the  latest  materials  for  scriptural 
stewardship  and  Cooperative  Program  enlistment. 

2.  Received  the  wise  suggestions  from  these  officers. 


158 


Baptist  State  Convention 


III.  Workshops 

Workshops  in  Stewardship  Development  were  held  for  the  pastor 
and  treasurer  of  each  church  in  sixteen  associations.  A  speaker  was 
secured  on  the  Cooperative  Program  on  the  following  Sunday  in 
each  church  requesting  this  service.  The  purpose  of  each  of  these 
workshops  was : 

1.  Give  a  broad  view  of  Stewardship  materials  available  to  help 
these  church  leaders  develop  scriptural  stewards. 

2.  Answer  any  questions  concerning  the  Stewardship  programs 
and  the  Cooperative  Program. 

3.  Give  encouragement  lo  mese  leaaers  to  use  one  or  more  oi 
these  Stewardship  programs  and  lo  increase  the  cnurcnes  giv- 
ing through  the  Cooperative  Program  for  the  benefit  of  tneir 
churches. 

IV.  Articles,  Art,  and  Reports 

We  wrote  articles,  developed  art  and  furnished  pictures  on  Co- 
operative Program,  Stewardship  and  State  Missions  for  the  Bibli- 
cal Recorder  in  cooperation  with  Mr.  Marse  Grant,  Editor. 

We  published  in  the  September  27  issue  of  the  Biblical  Recorder 
the  Cooperative  Program  giving  of  each  church  for  the  first  six 
months  of  1969  and  made  this  available  in  the  annual  associational 
meetings.  We  prepared  the  materials  for  the  special  issues  of  the 
Biblical  Recorder:  one  on  State  Missions  on  September  6  and  one 
on  the  Cooperative  Program  on  September  27. 

We  wrote  articles  on  the  Cooperative  Program  for  Charity  and 
Children  each  week  in  cooperation  with  Mr.  J.  Eugene  White, 
Editor. 

We  wrote  an  article  each  month  on  the  Cooperative  Program  in 
cooperation  with  the  Associational  Missionaries,  Moderators,  Stew- 
ardship-Cooperative Program  Chairmen,  and  the  Convention's  Gen- 
eral Board  Members  for  publication  in  their  bulletins. 

V.  Other  Areas  of  Work 

We  have  answered  the  requests  of  many  churches  needing  special 
help  in  the  area  of  developing  scriptural  stewards  and  increasing 
Cooperative  Program  giving. 

During  the  past  twelve  months  in  doing  this  work  for  you  in 
Christ's  name,  there  were  sixteen  added  by  baptism  to  the  churches 
for  which  I  preached  and  nine  by  letter. 

Dr.  W.  Perry  Crouch,  General  Secretary-Treasurer  of  our  Con- 
vention, Mr.  O.  J.  Hagler,  Director  of  the  Division  of  Stewardship 
Promotion  and  the  other  personnel  of  this  Division  have  given 
wise  counsel  and  help  in  all  the  work  of  this  department.  Mrs. 
Susan  Cochrane,  office  secretary,  has  given  valuable  help  in  our 
common  task.

To  those  above,  plus  each  pastor,  associational  leader,  General 
Board  member,  editors  and  associates  of  the  Biblical  Recorder  and 
Charity  and  Children  and  our  entire  Convention  staff,  we  express 
our  thanks  for  their  genuine  cooperation. 

4.  Annuity  Department 

Guy  S.  Cain,  Secretary 

The  year  has  been  full  of  action  for  our  department.  We  have 
been  in  forty  associations  for  annual  meetings  and  other  group 
meetings. 

A  new  emphasis  has  been  given  to  upgrading  the  retirement 
participation  for  the  pastors.  The  response  has  been  encouraging. 
The  churches  are  becoming  aware  of  the  economic  situation  of 
pastors  retiring  in  the  inflated  economy.  We  have  contacted  300 
churches  with  this  emphasis. 

Enrollment  of  other  pastors  and  associate  ministers  is  always  our 
chief  goal.  This  year  we  have  stressed  more  than  ever  these  benefits 
for  the  entire  church  staff.  We  encourage  every  church,  large  or 
small,  to  give  ten  percent  of  salary  through  the  budget  for  the 
Protection  Program.  We  contacted  over  400  churches  to  encourage 
enrollment. 

New  Group  Insurance  Plan 
The  Life  Benefit  Plan  is  closed  for  new  members.  The  Group 
Insurance  Plan  opens  October  1,  1969.  Present  members  of  Life 
Benefit  Plan  may  transfer  and  have  greater  insurance  protection. 
With  the  Group  Insurance  Plan  is  a  wonderful  disability  insurance 
plan.  Many  churches  will  add  this  to  the  protection  benefits  for  their 
staff. 

Participation 

At  the  end  of  October  1969  we  have  1900  churches  and  associa- 
tions enrolled  in  the  Protection  Program  with  2,164  members.  This 
is  a  good  record  for  North  Carolina  but  needs  to  be  increased. 

Annuitants 

Our  last  report  from  the  Annuity  Board  shows  that  253  men 
and  172  women  are  drawing  monthly  annuity  checks.  All  of  them 
on  the  roll  last  year  were  greatly  pleased  with  a  check  in  February 
equal  to  12  per  cent  of  their  annual  annuity. 

SouTHwiDE  Report 
At  the  end  of  June  1969  total  assets  of  the  Annuity  Board  were 
in  excess  of  $220  million.  During  1968  6,461  persons  were  paid 
annuities  totaling  $6,369,306.  An  additional  $173,863  was  paid  to 
501  relief  recipients  from  the  Cooperative  Program  funds  allocated 
by  the  Southern  Baptist  Convention  for  this  purpose.

5.  Department  of  Communications 

(Audio  Visuals,  Graphic  Arts,  News  Service) 
Jimmy  Morriss,  Secretary 

The  Department  of  Communications  promotes  the  total  Baptist 
program  through  the  divisions  of  the  General  Board,  agencies,  in- 
stitutions and  associations.  It  is  a  department  that  is  primarily  pub- 
lic relations  and  is  incorporated  in  the  Division  of  Stewardship 
Promotion.  The  work  of  the  department  may  be  divided  as  follows: 

I.  AUDIO  VISUAL  AIDS 

A.  Film  Library. 

During  the  past  year,  the  department  booked  more  than  12,000 
free  rental  films.  We  estimate  that  approximately  60  per  cent  of 
the  churches  in  the  Convention  are  using  audio-visuals  regularly. 
An  increasing  number  of  week-day  kindergartens  and  day-care 
centers  are  making  use  of  the  film  library  in  their  teaching  pro- 
grams. The  department  encourages  planning  for  a  basic  library  of 
audio-visuals  at  both  associational  and  church  levels,  with  supple- 
mentary titles  provided  by  the  department  library.  At  present,  this 
library  has  over  2,600  titles  covering  every  area  of  denominational 
endeavor. 

B.  Film  Production. 

Among  the  films  produced  this  year  by  the  department  are:  a  68 
frame  color  filmstrip,  "Times  Like  These,"  produced  to  depict  state 
mission  ministries  and  to  promote  the  annual  State  Missions  offer- 
ing; sound  on  film  interviews  for  television  and  library  usage,  one 
featuring  Charles  B.  Howard,  "Fifty  Years  in  the  Ministry"  and 
the  other  featuring  Arthur  B.  Rutledge,  "Home  Missions  Today"; 
some  200  color  slides  and  500  black  and  white  pictures  illustrating 
the  various  ministries  and  aspects  of  the  Baptist  state  program.  The 
department  works  closely  with  all  Convention  divisions  in  compiling 
articles  and  pictures  for  State  Mission  emphasis, 

C.  Communication  Conferences. 

A  number  of  communication  conferences  were  held  at  the  request 
of  the  associations  and  churches.  The  department  assisted  in  a 
School  for  Deacons  in  the  Union  Association,  and  assisted  in  a 
number  of  A-V  clinics  in  the  churches  and  associations  in  addition 
to  an  A-V  class  session  at  Gardner-Webb  College. 

D.  Audio  Aids. 

More  than  3,500  messages  were  reproduced  at  the  request  of 
pastors  and  churches  this  year.  Major  messages  of  all  the  conven- 
tions and  conferences  were  recorded  and  placed  in  the  central 
convention  tape  library,  bringing  the  total  number  of  messages 
available  for  re-production  to  more  than  300.

II.  GRAPHIC  ARTS 

Over  300  individual  lay-outs  were  designed  and  prepared  for 
printing  this  year.  These  included  posters,  programs,  folders,  forms 
and  stationery. 

III.  NEWS  SERVICE 

Our  responsibility  to  provide  new^s  coverage  of  Baptist  state  work 
to  some  485  newspapers,  radio  and  television  stations  and  all  as- 
sociational  missionaries,  culminated  in  at  least  60  articles  for  state- 
wide release.  Complete  pictorial  and  news  coverage  on  State  Mis- 
sions was  provided  for  the  Biblical  Recorder,  Charity  and  Children 
and  other  publications. 

IV.  TELEVISION  AND  RADIO. 

The  department  continues  to  produce  the  network  series,  A 
LIGHT  UNTO  MY  PATH,  a  mission  work  of  the  Convention,  de- 
signed to  reach  the  deaf,  the  aging  and  the  unchurched.  The  pro- 
gram is  presented  over  a  state-wide  network  including  WRAL-TV, 
Raleigh;  WLOS-TV,  Asheville;  WFMY-TV,  Greensboro;  WBTV, 
Charlotte;  and  WNCT-TV,  Greenville.  Also  providing  coverage  for 
North  Carolina  Baptists  is  WIS-TV,  Columbia,  South  Carolina.  The 
series  is  carried  by  10  other  stations  outside  the  state,  sponsored 
by  a  church  or  convention  in  that  state. 

Also  produced  are  BIBLE  STORY  TIME,  a  weekly  color  pro- 
gram for  pre-school  children  and  CHURCH  OF  OUR  FATHERS, 
a  weekly  30  minute  color  news  program.  Two  college  feature 
specials  were  produced:  OUT  OF  THE  ASHES,  a  30  minute,  color 
feature  on  Campbell  College  which  has  been  shown  over  three 
television  stations,  and  BORN  TO  SERVE,  a  30  minute,  color  tele- 
cast on  Chowan  College,  shown  on  two  stations. 

A  new  television  ministry  was  begun  in  the  production  of  LIGHT 
FOR  LIVING,  a  3-5  minute  program  featuring  a  simple  Bible  reading 
and  prayer  format.  This  is  presently  being  used  as  a  sign-on,  sign- 
off  segment  on  WRAL-TV,  Raleigh  and  WNCT-TV,  Greenville.  The 
department  is  also  cooperating  with  the  Sunday  School  Department 
in  the  production  of  a  program  featuring  the  International  Bible 
Lesson  on  a  weekly  basis  for  a  growing  network  of  radio  stations. 
The  department  worked  closely  with  the  Division  of  Evangelism 
in  setting  up  a  network  of  telecasts  across  the  state  for  the  series 
of  programs  on  the  Crusade  of  the  Americas.  At  present,  plans  are 
well  underway  for  a  series  of  programs  in  the  public  interest  deal- 
ing with  areas  in  which  the  church  should  become  involved  such  as 
youth  and  drugs,  work  with  the  retarded  and  handicapped,  high- 
way safety  and  preservation  of  our  natural  resources.  The  depart- 
ment also  works  closely  with  the  Southern  Baptist  Radio  and  Tele- 
vision Commission. 

V.  OTHER  AREAS. 

The  department  has  two  approved  summer  workers  at  the  as- 
semblies, showing  more  than  300  film  and  special  sound  presenta-

tions  each  season.  Equipment  and  supplies  for  the  season  at  both 
Fruitland  and  Caswell  are  provided  through  the  department.  We 
assisted  the  Department  of  Town  and  Country  Missions  in  the 
presentation  of  filmed  messages  at  the  following  resort  areas:  Nags 
Head,  Lake  Lure,  Atlantic  Beach,  Ocean  Isle,  White  Lake  and  Lake 
Norman.  The  department  also  provides  audio-visual  equipment  for 
each  staff  member  of  the  General  Board  for  field  use. 

F.  DIVISION  OF  CHRISTIAN  LIFE  AND  PUBLIC  AFFAIRS 

Ed  Brandon,  Chairman 
W.  Perry  Crouch,  Acting  Director 

1969  has  been  the  year  of  beginnings  for  your  Council  on  Chris- 
tian Life  and  Public  Affairs.  The  Council,  created  by  action  of  the 
1968  Convention,  brings  its  first  annual  report  to  the  Convention  in 
this  1969  session. 

In  keeping  with  Convention  action  of  1968,  and  in  our  own 
understanding  of  our  assignment,  we  have  assumed  that  our  first 
responsibility  is  to  relate  the  issues  considered  in  this  report  to  our 
Convention  and  to  the  churches  affiliated  with  it;  and,  secondarily, 
to  the  larger  society  of  which  we  are  a  part. 

In  fulfilling  our  responsibilities  as  assigned  by  the  Convention  we 
have  recognized  that  we  cannot  deal  with  all  the  important  issues 
in  any  one  report.  Nevertheless,  we  call  to  your  attention  in  this 
report  the  following  matters. 

The  Nature  of  the  Christian  Life 

The  Gospel  is  the  many-splendored  story  of  God's  love  for  man 
to  be  experienced  in  two  dimensions  of  our  existence — the  personal 
and  the  social.  The  Christian  life,  motivated  and  grounded  in  the  love 
of  the  cross,  requires  of  the  individual  continuously  a  "journey  in- 
ward" and  a  "journey  outward."  We  are  not  to  be  Christians  only  on 
Sundays,  but  every  day  of  our  life,  in  every  situation,  in  all  our 
relationships  and  in  all  our  responsibilities. 

Christianity  is  not  a  way  to  live  in  a  certain  area  of  our  lives, 
but  a  certain  way  of  living  in  every  area  of  our  lives.  Our  Lord's 
commandment  to  love  God  with  all  our  mind,  soul  and  strength 
and  our  neighbor  as  ourself  must  ever  be  the  guiding  principle  for 
all  our  decisions,  desires,  motivations  and  aims.  To  be  fully  our 
Saviour,  Christ  must  be  acknowledged  and  obeyed  as  Lord  in  all 
things. 

Christian  social  action  is,  therefore,  as  necessary  as  personal  be- 
lieving faith.  Faith  without  works  is  dead  and  works  without  faith 
is  dead!  There  is  no  conflict  between  the  task  of  evangelism  and 
the  requirements  of  ethical  conduct.  The  first  begins  the  Christian 
life,  even  as  the  second  is  evidence  of  its  reality.  They  are  two 
sides  of  the  same  coin.  The  Christian  life  exhibits  the  constant 
rhythm  of  personal  spiritual  intake  and  loving  output  in  qoncern 
for  the  neighbor.

Christian  social  action  requires  of  us  the  constant  enrichment 
of  the  interior  life  whereby  the  disciplines  of  prayer,  the  study  of 
God's  word,  meditation,  worship,  and  adding  knowledge  to  faith 
by  "giving  heed  to  reading,"  provide  wisdom,  concern  and  motiva- 
tion for  loving  the  neighbor  as  Christ  has  loved  us. 

Christian  social  action  without  the  flow  of  such  spiritual  power 
can  too  quickly  devolve  into  an  inadequate  humanism.  The  life  of 
personal  piety  that  does  not  lose  its  life  in  loving  service  to  one's 
neighbor  degenerates  into  the  loveless  self-righteousness  of  the 
Pharisee  which  our  Lord  so  sternly  rebuked. 

While  the  particular  responsibility  of  the  Council  on  Christian 
Life  and  Public  Affairs  is  to  provide  our  people  with  scriptural 
guidance  on  applying  the  gospel  to  our  social  obligations,  we  must 
be  as  diligent  to  remind  our  people  of  the  necessity  to  deepen 
the  interior  life  as  the  source  of  spiritual  power  for  our  obedience 
to  the  ethical  demands  of  the  gospel.  The  journey  inward  must  be 
made  first,  allowing  the  Holy  Spirit  to  shed  abroad  in  our  hearts 
the  love  of  the  cross.  Only  then  can  our  outward  journey  into  the 
world,  to  be  salt,  light  and  leaven,  insure  the  fulfillment  of  our 
Lord's  prayer  that  being  in  the  world  as  God's  servants,  we  shall 
not  be  of  it.  Deeds  of  love  must  match  the  verbal  proclamation  of 
the  Gospel.  One  without  the  other  is  a  distortion  of  the  Gospel.  We 
are  to  be  ever  mindful  that  the  Gospel  is  to  be  applied  to  all  of 
life  by  those  filled  with  the  Holy  Spirit.  Full  obedience  to  the 
Gospel  requires  faithfulness  to  the  demands  of  personal  morality 
and  social  ethics  alike. 

No  area  in  life  is  to  be  marked  "off  limits"  to  God.  He  is  Lord 
of  all  men  and  of  all  of  life.  Christian  social  action  is  no  substitute 
for  evangelism,  even  as  evangelism  cannot  be  the  end  of  Christian 
witness  and  obedience.  Christian  social  action  is  not  unto  salvation 
but  its  necessary  and  inevitable  fruit.  "For  we  are  his  workman- 
ship, created  in  Christ  Jesus  unto  good  works,  which  God  hath  be- 
fore ordained  that  we  should  walk  in  them."  (Eph.  2 :10) . 

Christ  is  God's  answer  not  only  for  the  individual  soul  but  for 
man  in  relationship  to  his  fellowman  as  well.  The  Christian  life  is 
personal  but  not  private.  It  must  include  loving  concern  for  the 
neighbor.  Forgetfulness  of  the  neighbor  is  a  denial  of  the  cross 
whereon  Christ  gave  his  life  for  others.  The  redeemed  life  must 
acknowledge  Christ  as  Lord  in  all  things.  Failure  to  seek  the  ways 
of  Christian  wisdom  in  applying  the  Gospel  to  all  of  life  is  likewise 
a  denial  of  the  cross.  To  restrict  His  saving  power  to  the  private 
sphere  of  the  individual  soul  is  to  open  life  elsewhere  to  the  re- 
currence of  polytheism  in  more  subtle  and  deadly  forms,  often  heard 
in  such  expressions  as,  "Business  is  business,"  "Politics  is  politics," 
as  though  these  other  areas  were  autonomous  unto  themselves, 
ruled  by  value  systems  other  than  the  Christian  ethic.  This  com- 
partmentalization  of  life,  with  each  area  sealed  off  and  insulated 
from  every  other  area,  denies  the  wholeness  of  salvation  which 
Christ  came  to  bring. 

Belief  in  Christ  as  Saviour  must  include  obedience  to  Him  as 


164 


Baptist  State  Convention 


Lord.  The  utterances  of  the  prophets,  the  parables  of  Jesus,  the 
Sermon  on  the  Mount,  the  inspired  utterances  of  the  apostles, 
and  the  example  of  Jesus  especially,  are  filled  with  divine  in- 
struction on  the  life  of  obedience  and  service  as  expressions  of  the 
saved  life. 

The  two  dimensions  of  our  existence  must  become  permeated 
with  the  Gospel — the  personal  and  the  social.  There  is  only  one 
Gospel — ^God's  saving  love  in  Christ  for  man  as  an  individual  child 
of  God  and  for  man  in  relationship  to  his  fellowman  in  all  areas  of 
life.  So  Christ  lived  his  life.  So  must  we  live  our  lives. 

Race  Relationships 

Because  tensions,  prejudice,  discrimination  and  hostility  due  to 
racial  differences  continue  to  plague  our  land,  racism  is  a  major 
problem  confronting  all  Christians.  There  is  no  social  issue  on 
which  the  light  of  the  gospel  is  clearer.  There  is  no  Christian  argu- 
ment in  defense  of  racial  discrimination. 

Those  who  seek  to  justify  their  racial  prejudice  on  the  basis  of 
Old  Testament  texts  do  violence  to  the  superior  authority  of  Christ 
over  the  racial  and  national  exclusiveness  exhibited  by  the  unful- 
filled covenant  which  has  been  superseded  by  the  New  Covenant. 

Jesus  never  practiced  racial  discrimination.  The  whole  tenor  of 
his  teachings  about  the  treatment  of  neighbor  by  neighbor  leaves 
no  room  for  racism  in  the  Christian  ethic.  The  whole  manner  of  his 
own  life  stands  clearly  against  racism  as  well.  The  whole  teach- 
ing of  the  Apostles  is  firmly  consistent  in  support  of  Jesus'  life  and 
teaching  on  love  of  one's  neighbor  exclusive  of  all  racial  considera- 
tions. 

Nowhere  do  Christians  stand  more  clearly  under  the  judgment  of 
God  than  on  their  racial  attitudes  and  practices,  for  racism  strikes 
at  the  very  heart  of  the  gospel  itself.  The  complexity  and  diffi- 
culty of  the  problem  does  not  lessen  our  responsibility  to  seek  cor- 
rection of  attitudes  and  deeds  if  we  are  to  be  a  reconciling  force 
in  the  present  situation. 

Without  pretending  to  offer  complete  or  final  solutions  there  are 
some  things  we  can  do  as  individual  Christians  and  as  churches.  We 
can  support  and  improve  legislative  programs  designed  to  eliminate 
the  causes  of  racism  from  our  society.  We  can  free  ourselves  as  in- 
dividuals of  all  racial  prejudice  and  hostility.  We  can  set  examples 
of  obedience  to  properly  constituted  laws  of  the  land.  We  can  work 
for  repeal  of  blatantly  racist  laws  which  still  exist. 

To  eliminate  the  bitter  and  burdensome  results  of  racism  among 
us,  we  can  work  diligently  for  improvement  in  many  areas — job 
improvement,  housing  opportunities  made  equal,  improved  educa- 
tional opportunities  on  an  equal  and  desegregated  basis,  and  re- 
demptive eradication  of  the  causes  and  curses  of  poverty.  We  can 
repudiate,  and  keep  ourselves  free  from,  all  violent  measures  to 
achieve  racial  harmony  and  justice  among  us.  We  can  give  support 
to  the  Department  of  Interracial  Cooperation  of  the  Baptist  State 
Convention.  The  work  of  local  and  state  Good  Neighbor  Councils 


OF  North  Carolina 


165 


warrants  also  the  full  and  sympathetic  support  of  our  people  as  in- 
dividual Christian  citizens. 

We  can  and  should  declare  our  churches  open  to  "whosoever 
will  may  come"  regardless  of  race,  on  confession  of  Christ  as  Lord 
— the  only  basis  of  church  membership  in  the  New  Testament.  We 
can  stand  firmly  against  radical  extremists  on  both  the  Left  and  the 
Right,  by  either  white  or  black  citizens.  In  all  personal  relationships 
we  can  practice  the  love  of  Christ  without  fear  or  favor. 

We  must  recognize  that  some  Christians  and  some  churches  in 
our  own  Convention  have  already  set  worthy  examples  in  regard  to 
each  of  the  above  suggestions.  We  commend  them  and  encourage 
them  to  continue  in  their  strong  and  fearless  witness. 

In  brief,  we  can  take  up  a  cross  and  follow  Christ  in  his  holy 
example  of  love  for  our  neighbor  regardless  of  race,  color  or  na- 
tional origin. 

War  and  Peace 

We  are  painfully  aware  of  a  costly  and  frustrating  war  which 
continues  in  Vietnam  and  of  our  nation's  troubled  participation  in 
it.  We  deplore  the  destruction  of  human,  natural,  and  capital  re- 
sources which  characterizes  every  war. 

We  are  reminded  of  the  absence  from  our  homes,  churches,  and 
communities  of  some  of  the  finest  of  our  young  people  who  are 
serving  in  the  armed  forces.  Let  us  pray  for  them,  write  to  them, 
and  extend  the  fellowship  of  our  churches  to  them  across  the 
miles. 

We  urge  the  government  of  the  United  States,  and  the  govern- 
ments of  other  nations,  including  the  enemies  and  their  allies,  to 
redouble  their  efforts  to  negotiate  as  just  and  equitable  a  settlement 
of  this  war  as  possible.  We  commend  the  President  of  the  United 
States  for  urging  the  United  Nations  to  intervene,  and  we  implore 
our  nation's  leaders  to  work  diligently  through  every  available 
channel  to  effect  an  early  settlement  and  the  withdrawal  of  troops. 

This  particular  war  has  troubled  the  consciences  of  our  young  peo- 
ple as  has  no  other  war  in  recent  history.  We  urge  our  churches 
to  be  very  sympathetic  and  helpful  as  these,  our  own  young  people, 
face  the  ordeals  of  conscience.  Christians  throughout  the  history  of 
Christianity  have  approached  the  question  of  participation  in  war 
from  more  than  one  perspective.  There  have  always  been  pacifists 
who  have  declined  to  participate  on  various  grounds  of  conscience. 
The  vast  majority  of  Christians  have  gone  to  war,  although  with 
heaviness  of  heart,  when  it  was  thought  that  justice  required  the 
taking  up  of  arms. 

Many  young  people  today  accept  military  service  as  an  obligation 
of  citizenship.  Others  declare  themselves  to  be  conscientious  objec- 
tors according  to  the  provisions  in  the  law.  We  must  remember 
that  our  nation's  laws  provide  conditions  for  registration  as  con- 
scientious objectors. 

On  the  eve  of  World  War  II,  the  Southern  Baptist  Convention  in 
session  in  Baltimore  in  1940,  set  up  procedures  for  conscientious 
objectors  to  follow  in  securing  this  status  insofar  as  the  question  of 


166 


Baptist  State  Convention 


religious  affiliation  is  concerned.  The  following  statement  appears 
on  page  96  of  the  1940  Annual  of  the  Southern  Baptist  Convention: 

Baptists  have  always  believed  in  liberty  of  conscience  and 
have  honored  men  who  were  willing  to  brave  adverse  public 
opinion  for  the  sake  of  conscientious  scruples.  A  considerable 
number  of  members  of  churches  of  our  Convention,  through 
their  interpretation  of  the  moral  teachings  of  Christ,  have 
reached  the  position  of  a  conscientious  objection  to  war  that 
prohibits  them  from  bearing  arms. 

The  Convention  ought  to  accord  to  them  the  right  of  their 
convictions  as  it  accords  to  others  the  right  to  differ  from 
them,  and  ought  to  protect  them  in  that  right  to  the  extent  of 
its  ability. 
Therefore, 

Be  it  resolved,  that  the  Convention  go  on  record  as  recognizing 
such  right  of  a  conscientious  objection,  and  that  the  Conven- 
tion instruct  the  Executive  Committee  to  provide  facilities  for 
their  registration  with  the  denomination,  in  order  that  the  Ex- 
ecutive Committee  may  be  able  to  make  accurate  certifica- 
tion to  the  government  concerning  them  at  any  time  it  should 
be  called  for. 

It  is  our  understanding  that  the  Executive  Committee  of  the 
Southern  Baptist  Convention  still  serves  in  this  capacity  and  that 
a  registration  card  may  be  secured  from  that  source. 

The  1968  session  of  the  Baptist  State  Convention  referred  to  this 
Council  matters  regarding  conscientious  objection.  We  report  that 
the  whole  matter  of  military  service  will  be  studied  and  that  a 
special  pamphlet  on  "Conscientious  Objection"  is  being  prepared 
which  will  be  available,  upon  request,  to  pastors,  young  people, 
and  others  who  are  interested. 

Religious  Liberty 

We  believe  that  the  First  Amendment  to  the  Constitution  of  the 
United  States  is  a  cherished  and  effective  legal  guarantor  of  con- 
ditions under  which  religious  liberty  may  flourish  as  it  has  flour- 
ished in  this  nation  for  nearly  two  centuries. 

We  regard  the  rulings  of  the  U.  S.  Supreme  Court  prohibiting 
the  use  of  prescribed  prayers  in  the  public  schools  to  be  in  har- 
mony with  our  concern  for  religious  liberty  and  the  separation  of 
church  and  state.  After  all,  the  power  to  require  a  prayer  is  a 
coercive  power.  This  is  inimical  to  our  understanding  of  religious 
liberty.  In  all  fairness  it  should  be  pointed  out  that  the  decision  of 
the  Court  does  not  prohibit  voluntary  prayer.  We  think  that  basic 
religious  instruction  and  the  nurture  of  prayer  belong  in  the  home 
and  in  the  church. 

We  are  pleased  that  the  President  of  the  United  States  has  de- 
clined to  name  an  envoy  to  the  Vatican.  We  are  opposed  to  a  gov- 
ernmental representative  to  any  religious  institution. 

Tax  exemption  for  church  properties  is  another  issue  related  to 


OF  North  Carolina 


167 


the  question  of  religious  liberty  which  is  currently  being  examined 
by  the  courts,  legislative  bodies,  and  churches.  On  the  one  hand 
we  reaffirm  the  historic  American  practice  of  exempting  from 
taxation  religious  properties  used  exclusively  for  purposes  of  wor- 
ship and  religious  education.  On  the  other  hand  we  believe  that 
churches  which  own  and  operate  business  projects  from  which 
profits  are  derived  and  which  are  in  competition  with  private  en- 
terprises should  be  taxed  on  these  businesses. 

Public  Education 

For  the  past  fifteen  years  we  have  been  living  through  a  period 
of  basic  change  in  the  patterns  of  human  relations  as  our  public 
schools  have  been  moving  from  segregated  to  desegregated  facilities. 
This  change  is  still  in  process. 

We  are  grateful  for  the  orderly  way  in  which  this  change  is  being 
accomplished,  in  general,  throughout  our  state.  It  is  a  tribute  to 
the  basic  good  will  and  good  sense  of  the  majority  of  our  people, 
and  to  wise  administration  and  implementation  of  policies  by  edu- 
cators, school  boards,  children,  and  parents. 

We  regret  that  there  have  been  occasions  of  disruption  and 
violence.  We  urge  members  of  our  churches  to  obey  the  law  of  the 
land  regarding  school  desegregation  and  to  cooperate  with  its  im- 
plementation. We  further  urge  our  people  to  be  reconciling  forces 
in  their  communities. 

Baptists  are  advocates  of  a  good  system  of  elementary  and  secon- 
dary public  education.  The  strengthening  of  public  education  in 
North  Carolina  is  an  obligation  for  us  as  Christians  and  as  citizens. 
The  children  of  North  Carolina  are  our  greatest  human  resources. 
We  resolve  to  maintain  and  to  improve,  for  all  of  them,  without 
regard  to  race,  color,  or  creed  an  effective  public  school  system. 

We  commend  the  private  integrated  schools  established  to  pro- 
vide quality  education.  However,  we  note  with  sorrow  that  in  a 
number  of  communities  across  the  state  some  private  schools  have 
been  created  with  the  apparent  intention  of  retaining  racial  segre- 
gation. To  some  of  these  the  name  "Christian"  has  been  attached. 
We  state  our  firm  conviction  that  it  is  inappropriate  to  use  the 
honored  name  "Christian"  in  this  way. 

Communication  in  Family  and  Church 
The  human  family  continues  in  the  purpose  of  God  and  in  man- 
kind's experience  to  be  the  most  crucial  social  institution  for  man's 
being  and  well-being.  The  family  is  a  school  in  which  culture  is 
transmitted,  character  develops,  and  personalities  either  flourish 
or  wither.  At  its  best  the  family  is  the  setting  in  which  each  mem- 
ber is  loved,  accepted,  and  respected.  The  Christian  family  at  its 
best  is  a  miniature  church  in  which  grace  and  truth  are  blended 
with  discipline  and  understanding. 

Family  life  in  this  nation  is  affected  today  by  rapid  social  changes 
which  have  contributed  to  marital  discord  and  to  a  widening  gen- 
eration gap  between  parents  and  their  children.  The  breakdown 


168 


Baptist  State  Convention 


of  meaningful  communication  between  husband  and  wife  and  be- 
tween parents  and  children  contributes  to  family  disruption. 

The  quality  of  interpersonal  relations  is  the  key  to  better  family 
life.  Here  the  churches  have  a  unique  contribution  to  make.  The 
churches  have  the  privilege  of  introducing  the  families  of  men  to 
One  who  makes  all  things  new.  Furthermore,  the  churches  can 
teach  people  to  listen  to  one  another,  to  speak  the  truth  in  love 
to  each  other,  and  to  emphasize  the  deeper  unity  of  the  family  in 
the  midst  of  diversity. 

Family  and  church  should  work  together  in  family  life  educa- 
tion. This  education  should  include  biblical  teachings  on  the  mean- 
ing and  significance  of  human  sexuality,  marriage,  and  parenthood. 
Helping  young  people  resolve  an  inevitable  identity  crisis  ("Who 
am  I?"  "Why  am  I?"  "Where  am  I  going?"  "What  shall  I  do  with 
my  life?")  is  a  responsibility  to  be  shared  between  family  and 
church.  If  this  is  to  be  done  effectively  we  shall  need  to  engage 
our  young  people  in  thoughtful  dialogue  in  which  they  are  en- 
couraged to  talk  and  adults  are  admonished  to  listen.  This,  we  be- 
lieve, is  a  positive  approach  to  the  generation  gap. 

We  commend  the  General  Board  of  the  Baptist  State  Convention 
for  the  pioneering  effort  undertaken  in  the  establishment  of  a 
special  Youth  Division  in  the  Division  of  Church  Programs.  We 
trust  that  effective  Christian  communication,  commitment,  and  ac- 
tion will  result  from  this  venture.  We  also  endorse  the  Conven- 
tion's sponsorship  of  a  statewide  Christian  Family  Life  Conference 
and  express  the  hope  that  such  Conferences  may  be  repeated  in  the 
future. 

Alcohol 

The  problems  of  the  use  of  alcohol  continue  to  mount  as  traffic 
accidents  related  to  drinking  increase.  The  U.  S.  Department  of 
Transportation  and  the  Safety  Council  report  that  alcohol  is  in- 
volved in  50  per  cent  of  the  fatal  traffic  accidents.  It  is  reliably 
estimated  that  one  out  of  every  fifty  drivers  one  meets  on  the 
highways  is  driving  under  the  influence  of  alcoholic  beverages.  We 
urge  strict  enforcement  of  existing  laws  pertaining  to  driving  while 
drinking. 

We  believe  that  a  comprehensive  approach  to  alcohol  problems  is 
needed.  This  approach  includes  education  with  respect  to  the  scien- 
tific findings  concerning  alcohol  and  its  effects  on  the  human  body, 
the  family,  and  society. 

Legislation,  especially  that  which  restricts  the  advertising  of  alco- 
holic beverages  through  the  mass  media,  is  needed.  Legislation  pro- 
hibiting the  serving  of  alcoholic  beverages  on  commercial  air  flights 
is  needed  for  greater  safety  in  the  air  as  repeated  testimony  by 
pilots  and  stewardesses  before  congressional  committees  has  pointed 
out. 

In  addition  to  education  and  legislation  greater  moral  stamina 
on  the  part  of  persons  who  live  in  today's  society  where  drinking 
is  so  prevalent  is  essential.  Personal  decision  and  action  are  needed; 
specifically,  the  strength  of  character  to  choose  not  to  drink  when 
our  society  makes  drinking  so  easy  and  acceptable.

We  call  upon  our  fellow  Baptists  to  remember  the  commitment 
contained  in  the  covenants  of  many  of  our  churches  in  which  we 
promise  to  abstain  from  the  manufacture,  sale,  and  use  of  alcoholic 
beverages  in  any  form.  Moreover,  we  challenge  our  people,  includ- 
ing our  young  people,  to  give  an  effective,  attractive  witness  be- 
fore the  world  that  the  alcohol-free  way  of  life  is  the  better  way. 
Voluntary  abstinence  from  alcohol  by  Christians  with  winsome  per- 
sonalities will  provide  a  powerful  testimony  that  the  new  life  in 
Christ  offers  a  quality  of  personal  satisfaction  far  greater  than  that 
to  be  found  in  a  bottle.  Furthermore,  the  freedom  of  the  Christian 
stands  in  sharp  contrast  to  the  threatened  enslavement  by  alcohol. 
Our  plea,  therefore,  is  that  we  begin  in  our  churches,  among  our 
own  people,  to  deal  positively  with  alcohol  problems.  We  par- 
ticularly urge  our  churches  to  become  more  active  in  the  rehabilita- 
tion of  alcoholics. 

Drugs 

We  note  with  deepened  concern  the  increasing  acceptance  and  use 
by  our  youth  today  of  narcotics  in  various  forms.  Particularly 
alarming  is  the  growing  danger  of  marijuana.  Too  many  voices  are 
being  heard  which  discount  the  dangers  and  harmful  effects  of  the 
drug.  It  is  apparently  easily  available  and  inexpensive.  Detection 
is  difficult.  Although  marijuana  is  supposedly  not  physically  ad- 
dictive users  develop  a  psychological  drug  dependence.  It  becomes 
a  mental  crutch.  It  is  the  first  step  toward  the  use  of  more  deadly 
and  addictive  drugs. 

The  connections  of  suppliers  and  pushers  with  organized  crime 
are  well  documented,  but  the  public  needs  to  become  more  aware 
of  the  fact.  We  urge  the  strengthening  of  law  enforcement  units  at 
local,  state  and  national  levels  to  deal  with  these  problems. 

The  home  and  the  church  need  to  be  alert  to  opportunities  to 
teach  the  dangers  of  drugs.  Youth  must  be  confronted  with  the 
moral  as  well  as  the  physical  implication  of  drug  use.  A  Christian 
commitment  to  avoid  and  negate  the  use  of  drugs  should  be  a 
continuing  part  of  the  daily  life  of  each  of  us. 

Pornography 

The  increasing  flood  of  obscene  literature,  stage  plays  and  movies 
has  reached  alarming  proportions  in  our  present  society.  There  is 
also  a  rising  tide  of  opposition  to  the  apparently  uncontrolled  pro- 
duction of  pornography  in  every  form.  The  problem  presents  us 
with  one  of  the  most  complex  social  issues  of  our  time.  The  situa- 
tion calls  for  informed,  courageous  and  redemptive  Christian  con- 
cern and  action. 

The  issues  are  exceedingly  complex:  the  freedom  of  speech  and 
the  press  guaranteed  by  the  United  States  Constitution;  the  question 
of  what  constitutes  legitimate  censorship  in  the  mass  media;  the 
question  of  private  and  public  morality;  the  breakdown  of  ethical 
instruction  by  the  home  and  church;  the  use  of  obscene  literature 
and  movies  as  a  means  of  political  protest;  the  varied  interpreta- 
tions of  terms  contained  in  numerous  decisions  of  the  United  States 
Supreme  Court;  the  inconsistence  of  court  cases  throughout  the  land, 


170 


Baptist  State  Convention 


and  the  whole  question  of  morality  in  the  mass  media,  to  name  but 
a  few. 

The  further  complexity  of  the  problem  is  seen  in  the  seven  major 
areas  where  it  exists:  1.  The  blatant  sex  and  violence  in  regular 
movie  theaters;  2.  The  out  and  out  sex-oriented  movie  for  prurient 
reasons  in  the  off-beat  movie  houses;  3.  The  nude  Broadway  and 
off-Broadway  plays,  many  of  which  tour  the  country;  4.  Newsstand 
literature  in  the  form  of  magazines  and  the  sex-novel,  both  grossly 
illustrated;  5.  The  flood  of  unsolicited  mail-order  obscene  advertis- 
ing of  pornographic  articles,  movies,  books  and  magazines;  6.  The 
underground  obscene  newspaper;  and,  7.  The  threat  of  showing 
"X"  rated  movies  on  home  television  screens. 

The  deeper  psychological  and  spiritual  aspects  of  the  problem 
give  us  special  concern:  the  alienation  and  identity  crisis  in  our 
society;  the  dehumanizing  of  personality;  the  increasing  libertine 
and  sexual-license  ethic;  the  failure  of  church  and  home  in  sex 
and  personality  education;  the  greedy  exploitation  of  human  weak- 
ness for  profit;  the  general  lowering  of  personal  and  public  mo- 
rality; and  the  undermining  of  stable  family  life. 

While  the  various  forms  of  art  and  literature  in  every  civiliza- 
tion have  been  first  mirrors  of  culture  and  prevailing  moral  stand- 
ards, and  while  censorship  of  speech  and  publication  is  fraught 
with  great  risks,  it  is,  nevertheless,  evident  that  the  present  situa- 
tion regarding  the  uncontrolled  flood  of  pornography  raises  alarm- 
ing danger  signals  in  regard  to  the  degradation  of  personality  en- 
couraged by  the  hard-core  pornographer.  As  society  by  law  protects 
us,  our  children,  our  neighbors,  and  our  fellow  citizens  from  the 
vicious  and  destructive  mis-use  of  freedom  by  those  who  wantonly 
murder,  rape,  exploit  and  degrade  human  personality  by  other 
means,  so  must  we  find  the  means  to  eliminate  the  vicious  prac- 
tices of  the  pornographer  in  our  midst,  while  at  the  same  time  safe- 
guarding genuine  freedom  of  speech  and  publication  in  ways  which 
also  protect  us  from  a  form  of  reactionary  zeal  that  could  lead  to 
the  destruction  of  legitimate  art,  censorship  of  libraries  for  political 
reasons  or  the  indiscriminate  burning  of  books. 

What  can  we  as  concerned  Christians  do?  We  can  encourage  our 
congressmen  who  are  already  preparing  bills  to  attack  the  problem. 
We  can  encourage  our  local  newspapers  to  refuse  salacious  adver- 
tising of  the  sex-exploiting  movie,  such  actions  having  already  been 
sustained  by  local  and  federal  district  courts  in  various  parts  of 
the  country.  We  can  strengthen  the  home  and  church  in  their  edu- 
cational programs  toward  mature  ethical  and  personality  develop- 
ment. We  can  protest  in  writing  and  in  person  to  theater  managers 
who  show  movies  to  which  we  have  strong  objections.  We  can 
support  those  organizations  which  are  already  carrying  on  an  in- 
telligent, effective  program  of  correction  of  the  problem.  We  can 
encourage  our  church  members  who  own  newsstands,  movie  the- 
aters and  newspapers  to  exercise  their  moral  responsibility  and 
legal  rights  to  combat  this  growing  menace  to  personal  and  public 
morality.  We  can  use  every  legal  means  at  our  disposal  to  dry  up 
the  flood  of  pornographic  material.

We  can  proclaim  a  more  positive,  mature,  healthy-minded  concept 
of  human  personality  and  sex  as  set  forth  in  the  scriptures.  We  can 
demonstrate  in  our  own  lives  that  when  Christ  makes  one  whole 
again,  one  does  not  need  to  degrade  his  own  and  others'  person- 
alities by  getting  his  "kicks"  in  the  corrupting  ways  of  the  world  in 
order  for  life  to  be  filled  with  joy  and  gladness  and  with  creative 
purpose,  freed  from  all  the  hang-ups  of  alienation  and  morbid  pre- 
occupation with  sex  and  violence.  We  can  show  the  world  the  "more 
excellent  way"  of  true  Christ-likeness. 


Gambling 

Recurring  efforts  are  made  to  legalize  various  forms  of  gambling. 
We  stand  firmly  against  all  gambling,  so  called  legal  or  illegal.  We 
shall  resist  efforts  in  this  state  to  legalize  pari-mutuel  betting  and 
any  other  form  of  gambling. 

Among  our  reasons  for  being  opposed  to  gambling  are  the  follow- 
ing: (1)  Gambling  dehumanizes  persons.  Some  gambling  is  addic- 
tive. One  out  of  every  ten  gamblers  become  a  compulsive  gambler. 
(2)  Gambling  misappropriates  resources,  both  human  and  capital. 
It  deceives  people  in  promising  "something  for  nothing."  (3)  As  a 
source  of  revenue  gambling  does  not  pay  its  way.  This  is  true  fi- 
nancially and  morally.  Higher  police,  court,  penitentiary,  and  relief 
costs  obtain  where  gambling  has  been  legalized.  (4)  Finally,  as  one 
police  officer  put  it,  we  believe  that  "A  society  that  bases  its  finan- 
cial structure  on  the  weaknesses  of  its  people  doesn't  deserve  to 
survive." 

Future  of  the  Council 
We  believe  that  time  will  prove  the  wisdom  of  the  Convention  in 
establishing  this  Council.  The  Council  can,  we  think,  have  great 
usefulness  to  North  Carolina  Baptists  as  it  fulfills  its  assigned  tasks 
with  continuity  of  leadership  to  be  provided  by  the  employment  of 
a  Director. 

Conclusion 

The  present  era  in  human  history  is  momentous  and  decisive  for 
individual  Christians,  for  churches,  and  for  the  whole  Christian 
movement.  We  believe  that  Baptists  of  North  Carolina  deeply  de- 
sire both  to  know  and  to  do  the  will  of  God.  We  commend  this 
report  to  you  for  careful  study,  individually  and  in  the  churches. 
Let  us  examine  the  issues  in  the  light  of  the  situation  in  each 
local  community.  Let  us  then  take  appropriate  actions  in  the  light 
of  what  we  discover.

Council  Membership 

The  Council  on  Christian  Higher  Education  continues  to  be  an 
effective  cooperative  arrangement  between  the  Baptist  colleges  in 
North  Carolina  and  the  Baptist  State  Convention  of  North  Carolina. 
The  Council  membership  is  made  up  of  the  following:  presidents 
of  the  colleges,  deans  of  the  colleges,  chairmen  of  boards  of  trustees 
of  the  colleges,  and  sixteen  members  of  the  General  Board's  Com- 
mittee on  Christian  Higher  Education.  Ex-officio  members  of  the 
Council  are  Dr.  W.  Perry  Crouch,  executive  secretary-treasurer  of 
the  Baptist  State  Convention;  the  Reverend  James  C.  Cammack, 
president  of  the  General  Board;  Dr.  Claud  B.  Bowen,  president  of 
the  Baptist  State  Convention;  and  Mrs.  R.  Knolan  Benfield,  presi- 
dent of  the  State  Woman's  Missionary  Union. 

The  following  new  members  were  elected  from  the  General  Board 
to  Council  membership  last  year:  Felix  Arnold,  F.  L.  Barker,  David 
M.  Britt,  Boyd  Owen,  Clarence  Pritchard,  and  R.  F.  Smith,  Jr. 

Baptist  College  Students  Meet  Human  Needs 
The  positive  contribution  of  today's  college  student  is  a  fact  too 
frequently  overlooked.  Hundreds  of  North  Carolina  Baptist  students, 
without  pay  and  on  their  own  time,  are  engaging  in  a  variety  of 
missions  designed  to  meet  human  needs.  Representative  programs 
include  work  with  the  blind,  the  mentally  retarded,  the  under- 
privileged, the  aging,  the  sick,  the  delinquent,  the  illiterate,  and 
those  who  need  remedial  programs  in  order  to  finish  high  school 
and  college. 

Here  is  a  bird's-eye  view  of  some  of  the  student  action  on  our 
college  campuses: 

Chowan — Chowan  College  students  are  engaging  in  a  tutorial 
program  in  the  local  elementary  schools.  The  Baptist  Student  Union 


174 


Baptist  State  Convention 


also  has  a  program  to  assist  local  high  school  students — to  encourage 
them  to  remain  in  school  and  to  prepare  them  for  college. 

Campbell — Campbell  College  students  also  are  engaged  in  several 
church  and  community  projects.  One  of  the  most  successful  has 
been  a  tutorial  service  to  local  high  schools.  Many  retired  college 
faculty  members  are  also  participating  in  this  program. 

Gardner-Wehh — Gardner- Webb  College,  long  a  pioneer  in  com- 
munity development,  has  a  large  number  of  students  engaged  in  a 
variety  of  community  projects.  One  of  the  latest  has  been  to  assist 
with  the  Cleveland  County  Community  Action  Program  for  Mentally 
Retarded  Children. 

Mars  Hill — Mars  Hill  College  students  are  engaged  in  projects 
both  on  and  off  the  campus.  A  large  number  of  Mars  Hill  students 
are  participating  in  the  "Upward  Bound  Program"  which  ministers 
to  underprivileged  mountain  children.  Included  are  remedial  in- 
struction, recreational  programs,  and  cultural  activities. 

Meredith — Meredith  College  girls  give  a  number  of  hours  each 
week  to  the  School  for  the  Blind  and  to  Dorothea  Dix  State  Hospital, 
and  are  also  engaged  in  tutoring  children,  six  to  sixteen,  in  the  local 
schools.  Parties  are  sponsored  at  Christmas  for  the  children  and 
their  parents. 

Wake  Forest — Wake  Forest  University  recently  put  on  a  new 
kind  of  demonstration,  when  300  of  their  students  marched  to  City 
Hall  and  volunteered  their  services  for  work  in  the  inner-city. 
Wake  Forest  students  are  also  engaged  in  tutorial  programs  for 
underprivileged  elementary  and  secondary  school  students.  In  ad- 
dition, they  have  sponsored  a  variety  of  recreational  programs  for 
children  and  young  people. 

Wingate — Wingate  College  students  have  been  engaged  for  some 
time  in  neighborhood  tutorial  programs  and  in  weekend  recreational 
programs  for  deprived  children.  A  remedial  reading  course  has  been 
sponsored  for  grammar  school  students.  Student  teams  regularly 
visit  hospitals  and  convalescent  homes. 

The  programs  mentioned  above  are  representative  but  by  no 
means  cover  all  of  the  student  activities.  Baptist  college  students 
want  to  be  where  the  action  is,  both  in  church  and  in  community, 
and  are  offering  positive  and  constructive  leadership  worthy  of 
wider  recognition. 

We  hope  many  of  our  Baptist  churches  will  invite  representative 
groups  of  these  young  people  to  come,  either  at  a  morning  or  eve- 
ning service,  and  tell  about  their  work. 

This  is  a  thrilling  chapter  in  Baptist  higher  education. 

Baptist  Young  People  Serve  Their  Denomination 
Pastors,  deacons,  and  other  church  leaders  have  had  high  praise 
for  the  several  hundred  Baptist  young  people  who  worked  in  local 
churches  this  summer  and  a  variety  of  programs  sponsored  by  the 
Baptist  State  Convention.  The  Baptist  Youth  Corps,  sponsored  by 
the  Church  Training  Department,  has  been  unusually  successful. 
These  college  young  people  have  been  engaged  in  a  variety  of  tasks, 


OF  North  Carolina 


175 


including  teaching  Sunday  School,  planning  youth  retreats,  teaching 
church  study  courses,  supervising  church-centered  recreational 
camps,  assisting  in  Vacation  Bible  Schools,  leading  programs  of 
church  music  and  education,  and  preaching.  Reports  indicate  that 
Baptist  Student  Union  workers,  both  on  Baptist  college  campuses 
and  on  public  college  campuses,  have  had  an  unusually  fine  program 
in  their  Listen  and  Apostoloi  Teams.  In  addition  to  this,  these  Bap- 
tist college  young  people  have  worked  with  the  Interracial  Coopera- 
tion Department,  Town  and  Country  Extension  Department,  and 
with  the  youth  program  of  Woman's  Missionary  Union.  They  have 
helped  in  the  North  Carolina  Assembly  at  Caswell,  Fruitland  As- 
sembly, Truett  Camp,  Camp  Caraway,  and  Camp  Mundo  Vista  at 
Asheboro. 

Three  Major  Contributions 
These  year-round  programs  of  service  to  church  and  community 
are  making  three  major  contributions: 

1.  Because  of  a  variety  of  programs,  both  off  campus  in  the  sum- 
mer and  on  the  campus  in  the  winter,  Baptist  young  people  who 
have  committed  themselves  to  full-time  Christian  service  are  gain- 
ing invaluable  experience  where  it  counts — in  the  church  and  in  the 
community. 

2.  Many  of  these  young  people,  as  a  result  of  working  in  churches, 
assemblies,  and  in  the  various  Convention  programs,  are  choosing 
full-time  Christian  service. 

3.  As  a  result  of  being  able  to  meet  human  needs,  both  religious 
and  societal,  hundreds  of  these  young  people  are  developing  a  new 
attitude  toward  the  church,  and  because  of  this  practical  oppor- 
tunity to  relate  religion  and  life  they  will  go  back  to  their  local 
churches  as  Christian  laymen,  convinced  of  the  urgency  in  churches 
to  get  their  message  to  the  people  wherever  they  are. 

Baptist  College  Day  Set  for  June  21,  1970 
The  Baptist  College  Day  offering  becomes  more  important  to  our 
colleges  as  costs  continue  to  escalate.  It  is  estimated  by  the  Board 
of  Higher  Education  that  the  overall  costs  in  colleges  and  univer- 
sities will  escalate  at  the  annual  rate  of  12  to  14%  per  year  for  the 
next  ten  years. 

A  good  illustration  of  how  costs  have  risen  is  in  the  fact  that 
from  1958  to  1969  Baptist  college  current  expenditures  jumped 
from  $6,000,000  to  $25,000,000,  while  during  the  same  period  en- 
rollments increased  from  only  6,648  to  11,381.  Instructional  salaries 
increased  from  $3,200,000  in  1963  to  $6,700,000  in  1968.  Thus,  while 
student  enrollment  was  increasing  by  about  30%,  instructional  costs 
increased  over  100%.  It  is  a  tribute  to  our  college  administrators 
that  all  colleges  are  still  operating  in  the  black,  but  the  danger 
signals  are  up. 

Unfortunately,  our  Baptist  colleges  are  having  to  pass  more  and 
more  of  the  costs  of  education  on  to  the  student. 

Every  dollar  that  comes  in  on  the  Baptist  College  Day  offering 
is  of  direct  help  to  the  student. 


176 


Baptist  State  Convention 


It  should  be  kept  in  mind  also  that  the  undesignated  Baptist 
College  Day  offering  goes  into  the  student  aid  fund  of  the  colleges. 

The  theme  for  Baptist  College  Day  this  year  was  "Ministering  to 
the  Whole  Person,"  and  churches  were  urged  to  give  young  people 
an  opportunity  to  commit  themselves  to  a  Christian  vocation. 

Although  the  Baptist  College  Day  offering  has  moved  from  $32,000 
in  1957  to  $150,000  in  1968,  percentage-wise,  the  Baptist  colleges 
receive  less  than  any  other  special  offering.  Of  the  total  amount 
given  to  special  offerings,  the  range  is  from  3.68%  for  Christian 
higher  education  to  47.66%  for  foreign  missions.  This  is  followed 
by  the  Children's  Homes — 17.61%;  Home  Missions — 11.04%;  Bap- 
tist Hospital — 9.07%;  and  State  Missions — 6.66%. 

The  Cooperative  Program  continues  to  be  the  second  largest  source 
of  income  for  the  North  Carolina  Baptist  colleges  outside  of  student 
charges.  Few  denominations  have  been  more  generous  with  their 
educational  institutions.  The  Baptist  colleges  are  profoundly  grate- 
ful for  the  income  received  through  the  Cooperative  Program  and 
through  the  Baptist  College  Day  offering. 

The  Cooperative  Program  is  the  finest  expression  yet  devised  for 
translating  into  action  our  missionary,  evangelistic,  and  social  con- 
cerns. The  Council  on  Christian  Higher  Education  pledges  its  co- 
operation in  supporting  the  Co-operative  Program  as  the  best  means 
of  demonstrating  our  desire  to  carry  out  the  Great  Commission  both 
at  home  and  in  other  lands. 

CAMPBELL  COLLEGE 
Marion  L.  Eakes,  President,  Board  of  Trustees 
Norman  Adrian  Wiggins,  President 

Campbell  College  began  the  1969  fall  term  with  an  enrollment  of 
2305.  The  total  student  enrollment  for  the  fall  term  of  the  1968-1969 
school  year  represented  9  foreign  countries,  25  states  and  89  North 
Carolina  counties.  Of  the  total  enrollment  1525  were  men  students 
and  877  were  women. 

The  auditors'  report  for  the  year  ending  May  31,  1969,  showed 
a  gross  income  of  $4,916,571.62  and  a  net  operating  income  of 
$3,435,237.66.  Total  assets  on  the  combined  funds  balance  sheet 
were  listed  at  $11,497,297.01.  From  the  Cooperative  Program  of 
the  Baptist  State  Convention  Campbell  College  is  deeply  grateful 
to  have  received  $255,886.53,  which  was  7.45%  of  her  net  operating 
income.  We  are  pleased  to  report  that  the  College  ended  her  finan- 
cial year  in  the  black.  It  is  significant,  we  think,  that  through  the 
combined  efforts  of  Campbell  College  and  her  many  friends  and 
benefactors  the  net  worth  of  the  College  was  increased  during  the 
year  ending  May  31,  1969,  by  the  net  sum  of  $861,325.60.  Of  record, 
this  was  the  most  successful  financial  year  in  the  82-year  history  of 
Campbell  College.  We  are  proud  that  through  our  student  aid  pro- 
gram we  could  help,  in  the  financial  management  of  their  school 
expenses,  1401  students,  which  is  52.79%  of  our  total  student  en- 
rollment. 

In  addition  to  her  financial  program,  we  are  thankful  and  hum- 
ble in  saying  that  in  every  other  way  that  we  measure  a  fine

Christian  college,  Campbell  College  made  progress  in  both  her 
academic  program  and  her  business  procedures.  Under  the  leader- 
ship of  her  academic  Vice-President,  Dean  A.  R.  Burkot,  the  follow- 
up  self-study  committee,  composed  of  trustees,  faculty,  students  and 
administrative  officers,  is  in  the  process  of  completing  its  compre- 
hensive study  report  which  will  be  published  early  in  the  fall  of 
1969.  By  the  help  of  the  Business  Affairs  Committee  of  the  Camp- 
bell College  Board  of  Trustees,  the  Business  Affairs  Committee  of 
the  Presidential  Board  of  Advisors  (led  by  Addison  Hill  of  Bur- 
lington, North  Carolina,  employed  consultants),  and  our  auditors, 
the  administration  has  implemented  many  improvements  in  business 
management  procedures.  During  the  summer  of  1969  the  College 
completed  its  automation  information  center  and  changed  all  of  its 
data  processing  programs  from  mechanically  operated  IBM  equip- 
ment to  automatic  equipment  installing  an  IBM  computer.  The 
computer  science  classroom  adjacent  to  the  data  processing  center 
will  be  used  for  instructional  purposes  and  the  computer  is  already 
employed  in  both  teaching  and  administrative  programming. 

Campbell  College  is  continuing  her  efforts  to  raise  funds  for 
use  in  the  construction  of  an  acutely-needed  classroom  building  to 
house  the  Department  of  Religion,  replacing  the  Religion-Math 
Building  destroyed  by  fire.  There  is  also  immediate  need  for  other 
buildings.  Of  these,  priority  must  be  given  to  a  Fine  Arts  Build- 
ing and  secondly,  to  an  Athletic  Facility  adequate  to  meet  the 
athletic  and  physical  education  needs  of  our  College. 

During  the  past  12  months  we  have  been  deeply  saddened  by  the 
death  of  three  of  our  distinguished  and  beloved  trustees.  On  De- 
cember 18,  1968,  death  came  to  The  Honorable  Romulus  A.  Hedg- 
peth,  distinguished  alumnus,  Mayor  of  Lumber  ton,  generous 
benefactor  and  member  of  the  Campbell  College  Board  of  Trustees 
since  1958.  On  July  18,  1969,  while  attending  a  trustee  meeting  at 
Campbell  College,  Trustee  P.  S.  Jones  of  Rocky  Mount,  North  Caro- 
lina, died  from  a  heart  attack  here  on  the  campus.  The  death  of 
this  honored  trustee,  Christian  gentleman,  and  generous  benefactor 
brought  great  grief  to  the  entire  Campbell  College  family.  Then, 
on  September  17,  1969,  death  claimed  one  of  our  newly  appointed 
trustees,  Roy  Lewis  of  Charlotte,  North  Carolina.  As  a  loyal  alum- 
nus of  Campbell  College,  and  an  outstanding  Baptist  Christian 
layman.  Trustee  Lewis  had  in  the  short  time  that  he  was  privileged 
to  serve  on  our  Board  of  Trustees  endeared  himself  to  all  by  his 
meritorious  service  and  devotion  to  the  cause  of  Campbell  College.

CHOWAN  COLLEGE 
H.  Douglas  White,  Chairman,  Board  of  Trustees 
Bruce  E.  Whitaker,  President 

Chowan  College's  122nd  academic  year  (1969-70)  finds  a  total 
of  1,316  students  enrolled  in  the  various  curricula  offered  by  the 
College.  Of  this  number,  790  are  freshmen  or  transfer  students; 
480,  returning  students;  15  are  enrolled  in  the  final  phase  of  the 
RN  program  at  Duke  University;  6  medical  secretarial  interns,  re- 
ceiving clinical  training  in  area  hospitals;  and  25  are  classified  as 
"special  students"  (enrolled  for  less  than  12  semesters  of  credit 
class  work).  The  full-time  equivalency  figure  is  1,306. 

Added  attention  has  been  given  to  the  academic  preparation  of 
the  faculty  during  the  past  year.  Thirty  members  of  the  faculty 
were  engaged  in  further  graduate  studies  during  the  summer  months 
of  1969.  Also,  seven  faculty  members  were  added  to  the  instructional 
staff,  bringing  the  total  number  of  full-time  faculty  members  to 
sixty-nine  for  the  current  academic  year.  Student-faculty  ratio  is 
now  18.5:1.  There  are  thirteen  additional  members  of  the  instruc- 
tional staff  who  teach  on  a  part-time  basis. 

Increased  attention  is  also  being  given  to  the  area  of  student 
personnel  services.  This  is  in  keeping  with  the  College's  stated 
purpose:  "To  meet  the  personal  needs  of  the  individual  student 
and  to  make  his  stay  at  Chowan  as  meaningful  as  possible  by  pro- 
viding him  with  effective  academic  and  social  counseling."  Student 
members  of  the  academic  community — under  the  supervision  and 
guidance  of  responsible  staff  personnel — are  being  encouraged  and 
instructed  in  the  governance  of  their  residence  halls,  in  campus 
judiciary  matters,  and  in  the  planning  and  execution  of  a  whole- 
some religious  and  social  life  on  campus. 

Chowan  College  has  reached  the  mid-point  in  its  current  de- 
velopment projections  (1966-1973).  The  Fourth  Annual  Planning 
Conference,  held  on  October  4,  1969,  involved  members  of  the 
academic  community,  alumni,  business  and  civic  leaders,  and  other 
friends  of  the  College  in  an  appraisal  of  the  progress  made — and  yet 
to  be  made — in  terms  of  these  development  projections.  This  same 
theme  was  explored  in  a  Church  Leadership  Seminar,  scheduled 
on  the  same  date  and  involving  pastors  and  other  church  leaders  in 
the  Atlantic,  Chowan,  Neuse,  North  Roanoke,  South  Roanoke,  and 
West  Chowan  Associations.  It  is  anticipated  that  such  gatherings 
as  these  will  serve  both  to  facilitate  communications  between  the 
College  and  its  many  constituencies,  and  to  involve  a  greater  num-

ber  of  persons  in  advisory  roles  in  the  projection  of  development 
goals  for  the  future. 

Currently  under  construction  on  campus  is  a  280-bed  residence 
hall  for  men.  It  will  be  ready  for  occupancy  by  the  fall  term  of  1970. 
This  facility  is  designed  to  remove  students  from  housing  facilities 
which  are  now  inadequate  and/or  overcrowded.  No  appreciable 
increase  in  enrollment  is  anticipated  with  the  addition  of  this  par- 
ticular facility. 

The  erection  of  a  science-engineering  facility  is  a  MUST  in  the 
immediate  future.  Green  Hall  (the  present  science  building)  was 
originally  constructed  to  accommodate  a  student  body  of  300!  It 
is,  obviously,  no  longer  adequate  to  serve  the  minimal  needs  of  a 
student  body  of  over  1300.  Such  a  facility,  however,  must  await 
the  acquisition  of  adequate  funds  to  finance  its  construction  and/ or 
the  generosity  of  some  benefactor  of  Christian  higher  education, 
as  yet  unknown  to  the  College. 

Staff,  faculty,  and  students  continue  to  engage  in  various  religious 
and  civic  services  to  Murfreesboro  and  other  locales  in  the  region. 
Such  are  accomplished  through  individual  interest  and  initiative; 
through  campus  clubs  and  organizations,  like  the  Baptist  Student 
Union;  and  through  a  newly  created  College  Speakers  Bureau. 
Much  more  could  be  done  to  aid  the  Baptist  churches  and  institu- 
tions in  the  area  close  by  the  campus.  We  invite  you  to  call  upon 
the  College  for  any  service  which  lies  within  our  province  to  per- 
form.

In  the  first  three  instances,  loans  were  made  from  the  Depart- 
ment of  Housing  and  Urban  Development,  covering  a  40-year  period 
and  carrying  interest  charges  indicated.  Each  is  self-liquidating. 
In  the  fourth  instance,  the  loan  was  from  the  U.  S.  Office  of  Edu- 
cation. In  addition,  we  have  a  commitment  from  the  Department 
of  Housing  and  Urban  Development  for  $975,000.00  (the  Conven- 
tion gave  approval  of  a  $1  million  dollar  loan),  carrying  interest 
charges  of  3  percent,  for  purposes  of  constructing  a  new  280-bed 
dormitory  for  men;  it  will  be  used  primarily  to  house  students  now 
living  in  off-campus  and  substandard  housing  facilities.  Moreover, 
in  1968,  the  Convention  authorized  the  college  to  borrow  the  sum 


180 


Baptist  State  Convention 


of  $550,000.00  for  purposes  of  constructing  a  critically  needed  new 
science-engineering  facility.  Upon  recommendation  of  the  Board  of 
Advisors  and  the  official  request  of  the  Board  of  Trustees,  Chowan 
College  is  requesting  this  Convention  to  grant  permission  for  an 
additional  $400,000.00  loan  on  the  proposed  new  science-engineering 
facility.  It  is  expected  to  cost  $1,200,000.00. 

Chowan  College  continues  to  make  persistent  efforts  to  serve 
Baptists  and  North  Carolinians.  Members  of  the  Chowan  College 
Family  appreciate  strong  support  from  North  Carolina  Baptists 
which  has  immeasurably  helped  to  increase  the  ministry  of  Chowan 
to  young  people,  particularly  to  the  Baptist  young  people  of  North 
Carolina.  Every  effort  is  made  by  the  college  to  solicit  the  interest 
of  young  people  from  churches  affiliated  with  the  Baptist  State 
Convention  of  North  Carolina.  Frequent  letters  are  sent  from  col- 
lege personnel  to  pastors  regarding  their  prospective  students,  and 
college  officials  also  frequently  visit  in  churches  and  various  Baptist 
Associations. 

GARDNER-WEBB  COLLEGE 

R.  Patrick  Spangler,  Chairman,  Board  of  Trustees 
E.  Eugene  Poston,  President  of  the  College 

The  63rd  year  of  service  to  the  Baptists  of  North  Carolina  was  a 
new  beginning  for  Gardner-Webb  College.  Approximately  three 
hundred  juniors  were  enrolled,  constituting  the  first  junior  class 
in  the  history  of  the  college.  The  senior  class  will  be  started  during 
the  fall  of  1970.  The  first  four-year  graduating  class  is  scheduled 
for  the  spring  of  1971. 

There  are  1460  students  enrolled  at  Gardner-Webb  for  the  1969-70 
school  term.  These  students  are  led  by  87  faculty  and  46  adminis- 
trative and  staff  members.  48  additional  employees  constitute  the 
cafeteria  and  maintenance  forces. 

At  the  present  time  there  are  26  faculty  and  administrative 
members  who  hold  an  earned  doctorate.  Seventeen  others  have 
three  years  beyond  their  Bachelor's  degree.  Eight  others  are  on 
leave  of  absence  working  on  their  Doctorates.  The  college  should 
be  able  to  meet  the  standards  of  faculty  training  for  a  four-year 
college  by  the  time  of  the  first  graduating  class. 

During  the  past  school  year  11,778  volumes  were  added  to  the 
Gardner-Webb  College  library.  The  trustees,  the  administration 
and  the  faculty  are  giving  priority  to  the  library.  Christian  trustees. 
Christian  faculty  members.  Christian  administrators,  an  ample 
supply  of  good  books,  and  interested  students  make  a  Christian 
college. 

A  new  organizational  structure  for  the  college  was  initiated  this 
year.  Divisions  replaced  departments  as  the  primary  units.  The 
following  organizational  structure  is  in  operation: 

I.    Division  of  General  Business

Gardner-Webb  lost  one  of  her  finest  supporters  this  year.  Mrs. 
O.  Max  Gardner,  Sr.  died  January  16,  1969.  Mrs.  Gardner  was  a 
"First  Lady"  in  every  respect.  She  exemplified  Christian  dedica- 
tion in  every  walk  of  life.  Her  influence  will  live  forever. 

At  the  present  time  there  are  90  ministerial  students  enrolled 
at  Gardner-Webb.  There  are  49  others  preparing  for  full-time 
Christian  vocations.  This  past  summer  24  of  Gardner- Webb's  stu- 
dents did  summer  mission  work  in  North  Carolina,  California,  Texas, 
New  Jersey,  Maryland,  and  Pennsylvania,  working  in  various  pro- 
grams and  in  various  positions.  The  Reverend  Charles  W.  Freeman 
has  developed  an  intern  program  on  a  trial  basis  with  local  pastors 
for  the  ministerial  students. 

During  the  past  year  the  Endowment  Funds  have  increased 
$60,000  through  bequests,  gifts  and  savings.  The  plant  assets  in- 
creased $437,000.  At  the  present  time  the  assets  of  the  college  are 
valued  at  $8,230,000  (total  of  plant  and  endowment).  The  Endow- 
ment Fund  is  valued  at  $1,940,000,  including  an  irrevocable  trust. 
As  of  June  30,  1969,  Gardner-Webb  College  owed  a  debt  of  $1,055,000 
to  the  First  Union  National  Bank  of  Charlotte,  North  Carolina.  This 
is  being  amortized  at  $11,000  per  month  plus  interest. 

The  college  is  entering  a  capital  funds  campaign  January  1,  1970. 
The  campaign  is  designed  to  assure  accreditation  as  a  senior  college. 

MARS  HILL  COLLEGE 
J.  Robert  Wren,  Chairman,  Board  of  Trustees 
Fred  B.  Bentley,  President 

Mars  Hill  College  is  on  the  move.  It  would  seem  that  we  are 
becoming  more  mature  each  day  as  a  four-year  Christian  institution 


t 


182 


Baptist  State  Convention 


of  higher  education  and  are  continuing  to  gain  more  and  more  recog- 
nition in  the  academic  program  in  which  we  are  trying  several 
innovative  and  experimental  programs.  The  most  recent  stamp  of 
approval  has  come  from  the  North  Carolina  Department  of  Public 
Instruction,  which  has  fully  accredited  our  Department  of  Education. 

As  was  stated  in  last  year's  report,  Mars  Hill  College  has  been 
engaged  in  a  study  of  the  Christian  emphasis  within  the  institution. 
The  culmination  of  the  year's  activity  can  be  seen  in  the  following 
statement  which  has  been  adopted  by  Mars  Hill  College  faculty 
and  administration.  While  room  does  not  permit  us  to  report  the 
entire  statement  of  philosophy,  the  second  and  last  paragraphs 
from  the  document  seem  to  present  a  synopsis  of  the  entire  state- 
ment. 

''Christian  education  involves  the  discovery,  transmission,  and 
preservation  of  truth.  Because  all  truth  is  of  God,  it  cannot  contra- 
dict itself  no  matter  who  discovers  it  or  in  what  area  of  endeavor 
it  becomes  known,  and  the  revelation  of  God  in  Jesus  Christ  is  the 
integrating  center  for  all  truth,  the  unifying  core  which  draws 
together  disparate  fragments  of  truth  and  reveals  their  interrelated- 
ness  and  value  to  man. 

"Christian  education  affirms  that  the  basic  and  determining  aspect 
of  life  is  man's  relationship  with  God  through  Jesus  Christ,  because 
it  is  only  in  this  context  that  Christian  principles  of  interpretation, 
evaluation,  relationship,  and  action  become  truly  and  fully  active 
and  effective.  Moreover,  there  should  be  rigorous  and  continuous 
examination  leading  to  a  growing  understanding  of  the  fundamental 
affirmations  and  presuppositions  of  the  Christian  faith.  Recognizing 
that  the  total  environment  of  the  college  community  is  itself  a 
powerful  educator,  Christian  education  will  not  be  restricted  to  the 
classroom  and  the  laboratory,  but  will  seek  to  accomplish  its  goal 
of  educating  the  whole  man  through  every  element  and  aspect  of 
college  life." 

To  serve  as  a  further  implementation  of  this  philosophy  of  Chris- 
tian education,  Mars  Hill  College  has  initiated  a  Christian  Ethics 
Institute,  which  is  a  thirteen-week  study  of  the  church's  role  in 
combating  poverty  in  Southern  Appalachia.  Initially,  eleven  minis- 
ters from  Buncombe  and  Madison  counties  are  taking  part  in  the 
seminar  study  at  the  college.  It  is  the  hope  of  the  administration 
and  faculty  that  Mars  Hill  College  can  become  the  center  for  Chris- 
tian studies  within  the  region  of  Western  North  Carolina. 

For  the  second  year  Mars  Hill  College  has  received  a  substantial 
grant  ($53,000)  from  the  Z.  Smith  Reynolds  Foundation  to  expand 
its  experimental  program  in  community  development  involving 
Mars  Hill  College  faculty  and  students  in  urban  and  rural  govern- 
ment studies.  Students  and  faculty  will  also  be  involved  in  tutorial 
programs  which  should  give  valuable  assistance  to  children  within 
the  region,  as  well  as  further  develop  a  Christian  sensitivity  to  our 
fellow  man. 

On  December  10  the  Board  of  Trustees  adopted  the  first  portion 
of  a  long-range  program  that  will  give  Mars  Hill  College  an  oppor- 


OF  North  Carolina 


183 


tunity  to  continue  to  develop  into  an  outstanding  Christian  liberal 
arts  college.  It  was  at  this  meeting  that  the  Board  members  voted 
to  begin  a  three-million  dollar  development  campaign  in  September 
of  1969.  The  purpose  of  this  campaign  is  to  raise  $500,000  for 
faculty  development,  $500,000  for  student  scholarships,  and  $650,000 
for  capital  indebtedness,  and  to  begin  a  deferred  gifts  program  of 
$1,350,000  for  the  Blackwell  Classroom- Administration  Building. 
This  far-reaching  program  will  be  extended  over  a  three-year  period, 
terminating  in  1972. 

The  enrollment  at  the  college  for  1968-69  was  1351  students, 
which  represented  a  slight  decline  in  the  total  student  enrollment. 
However,  it  is  encouraging  to  note  that  Mars  Hill  College  still 
attracts  three-fourths  of  its  student  body  from  the  Baptist  denomi- 
nation. Indications  are  that  the  enrollment  for  1969-70  will  be 
about  the  same  as  last  year. 

On  October  7,  1967,  Mars  Hill  College  experienced  the  formal 
opening  of  the  new  physical  education  complex  which  was  built  at 
an  approximate  cost  of  $1,750,000.  By  the  time  of  this  report  a 
new  senior  men's  dormitory  named  for  the  Gibson  family  of  High 
Point  will  have  been  completed  at  a  cost  of  $350,000.  Within  this 
$2,100,000  development,  the  total  indebtedness  at  Mars  Hill  College 
is  only  $575,000.  The  fund-raising  campaign  which  was  mentioned 
above  should  amortize  this  indebtedness  within  the  next  three  years. 

Again  this  year  it  was  the  privilege  of  Mars  Hill  College  to  be 
the  host  to  the  Week  of  Christian  Study  and  Fellowship  in  which 
approximately  four  hundred  ministers  and  their  families  were  in 
attendance.  Also,  Mars  Hill  College  was  host  to  the  Theron  Rankin 
Association,  and  approximately  two  hundred  and  eighty  persons 
from  this  association  spent  two  days  in  fellowship  on  our  campus. 
Other  groups  which  conducted  conferences  on  our  campus  were 
the  Council  on  Christian  Education  and  the  General  Board,  the 
Youth  Temperance  Conference,  and  a  youth  choir  from  Mississippi. 

All  the  sacrifices  and  achievements  of  the  past  have  brought 
Mars  Hill  College  to  an  opportune  position.  The  challenges  of  the 
future  call  for  further  developments  in  the  program  "Emphasis  on 
Excellence." 

MEREDITH  COLLEGE

E.  Bruce  Heilman,  President 

Meredith  College  enrollment  for  the  1968-69  fall  term  was  882, 
of  which  number  850  were  degree  candidates.  They  came  from  two 
foreign  countries,  eighteen  states  and  183  North  Carolina  com- 
munities. Fall  semester  enrollment  for  1969-70,  Meredith's  seventy- 
first  full  school  term,  numbers  946  degree  candidates  (an  increase 
of  10  per  cent  over  last  year)  and  57  special  students,  making  a 
total  of  1,003.  In  addition,  the  college  is  serving  the  community 
by  providing  music  instruction  to  approximately  110  non-college 
students.  A  sixth  dormitory,  costing  $775,000,  has  been  completed 
and  is  now  housing  148  students.

The  Bachelor  of  Arts  degree  was  awarded  to  171  young  women 
in  the  1969  commencement  exercises,  and  the  Bachelor  of  Music 
degree,  requiring  a  fifth  year  of  study,  to  2  graduates. 

During  commencement,  Distinguished  Alumnae  Awards  were 
granted  to  Miss  Ellen  D.  Brewer,  Raleigh;  Mrs.  L.  R.  Harrill,  Ra- 
leigh; Miss  Carolyn  Mercer,  Winston-Salem;  and  Mrs.  William  M. 
Watts,  of  Asheboro. 

The  interinstitutional  cooperation  between  Meredith  and  North 
Carolina  State  University,  Peace  College,  St.  Augustine's  College, 
St.  Mary's  College,  and  Shaw  University  has  gone  forward  this  year 
under  the  leadership  of  its  coordinator  Dr.  John  Yarbrough.  Pro- 
grams developed  during  1968-69  include  cooperation  among  libra- 
ries leading  toward  the  development  of  a  unified  list  of  holdings; 
plans  for  a  seminar  on  the  application  of  new  technologies  in  college 
teaching;  and  plans  for  a  musical  program  in  April,  1970,  which 
will  involve  all  six  of  the  Raleigh  institutions.  During  1968-69, 
students  from  each  of  the  other  five  institutions  took  courses  at 
Meredith  as  exchange  students. 

Meredith  students  continue  to  be  active  in  church  and  community. 
In  addition  to  participating  in  programs  of  the  church  and  Con- 
vention, Meredith  girls  give  a  number  of  hours  each  week  to  the 
State  School  for  the  Blind  and  to  Dorothea  Dix  State  Hospital.  They 
also  give  tutorial  assistance  to  children  from  six  to  sixteen  in  the 
local  schools. 

The  second  Faculty  Workshop  was  held  at  the  Baptist  State  Con- 
vention Building,  September  8-9,  1969,  with  Dr.  Felix  C.  Robb, 
Director  of  the  Southern  Association  of  Colleges  and  Schools,  as 
the  keynote  speaker. 

Construction  is  continuing  on  the  Weatherspoon  Physical  Edu- 
cation-Recreation Building  made  possible  by  a  gift  of  $400,000 
from  the  families  of  W.  Herbert  Weatherspoon  and  his  brother  the 
late  James  R.  Weatherspoon. 

Dr.  L.  M.  Massey  has  made  a  gift  which  will  make  possible  the 
construction  of  a  President's  home  to  be  located  near  the  edge  of 
the  campus. 

Meredith's  1968-69  financial  audit  as  of  June  30,  1969,  lists  the 
total  assets  of  the  college  at  $9,505,061.  The  indebtedness  as  of  that 
date  included  a  loan  of  $546,000  from  the  Housing  and  Home  Finance 
Agency  for  Poteat  Dormitory  and  the  Delia  Dixon  Carroll  Infirmary 
and  a  $684,000  loan  from  the  Department  of  Health,  Education 
and  Welfare,  Office  of  Education,  for  the  Carlyle  Campbell  Library. 
Both  loans  extend  over  a  40-year  period  and  carry  an  interest  rate 
of  three  percent. 

The  Meredith  College  Advancement  Program,  a  capital  campaign 
with  stated  objective  of  five  million  dollars,  is  continuing  with 
current  gifts  and  pledges  totaling  approximately  $3,200,000. 

Investments  are  being  invited  through  campaign  activities 
throughout  the  state,  including  corporation,  foundation,  alumnae 
and  other  interested  friends  of  the  college. 

Meredith  College  received  during  the  1968-69  fiscal  year  $241- 
863.63  from  the  Cooperative  Program.  The  total  gifts  to  the  college 


OF  North  Carolina

amounted  to  $755,361.56,  of  which  $450,686.15  went  for  capital 
operations  and  $304,675.41  for  current  operations.  Meredith  alum- 
nae support  continued  to  be  substantial  with  over  50%  participation. 
Alumnae  annual  giving  totaled  $45,891.44  in  addition  to  over 
$378,000  in  gifts  and  pledges  to  the  capital  campaign. 

Although  the  college  is  concentrating  maximum  effort  toward 
meeting  the  five-million  capital  program,  efforts  are  continuing  to 
secure  necessary  resources  for  support  of  its  scholarship  programs 
and  instructional  program  requirements. 

WAKE  FOREST  UNIVERSITY 
Leon  L.  Rice,  Jr.,  President,  Board  of  Trustees 
James  Ralph  Scales,  President 

The  1968-69  academic  year  was  a  year  of  continued  growth  and 
expansion  in  a  number  of  areas  at  Wake  Forest  University. 

Construction  was  completed  on  the  Charles  H.  Babcock  School 
of  Business  Administration  building,  and  the  school  moved  into 
its  new  $1  million  home  at  the  beginning  of  the  1969  fall  term. 

A  decision  was  reached  during  the  year  to  phase  out  the  under- 
graduate business  program  in  favor  of  graduate  work.  Leading 
the  new  program  is  Dr.  Robert  S.  Carlson,  former  member  of  the 
Harvard  Business  School  faculty,  who  was  elected  dean  of  the 
Babcock  School  during  the  spring. 

Grants  totaling  $1,370,000  were  awarded  in  November  to  the 
University  and  Bowman  Gray  School  of  Medicine  by  the  Z.  Smith 
Reynolds  Foundation.  One  of  the  gifts,  $120,000,  will  be  paid  to 
the  University  each  year  and  is  the  equivalent  of  $3  million  in 
endowment.  It  raises  to  $620,000  the  amount  the  foundation  gives 
Wake  Forest  annually.  The  other  grants  are  one  of  $750,000  to 
be  paid  to  the  University  over  a  five-year  period  to  improve  faculty 
salaries  and  $500,000  toward  the  cost  of  the  Medical  Center,  to 
which  the  foundation  previously  has  made  $1V2  million  in  grants. 

Wake  Forest  University  continues  to  be  grateful  for  the  annual 
support  which  it  receives  from  the  Convention.  The  amount  ap- 
propriated this  year  is  $411,725. 

The  year  also  was  marked  by  the  activities  of  two  institutes  the 
trustees  established  last  year.  The  Ecumenical  Institute  held  its 
first  major  event  during  the  spring  when  it  sponsored  a  three-day 
"dialogue"  of  Southern  Baptists  and  Catholics.  The  Urban  Affairs 
Institute  conducted  a  training  program  in  police-community  rela- 
tions during  the  fall  and  in  February  agreed  to  sponsor  Winston- 
Salem's  new  Youth  Services  Bureau  which  provides  professional 
help  to  potential  youthful  offenders. 

Student  concern  for  areas  outside  the  campus  was  evidenced 
by  such  projects  as  "Fast  for  Biafra,"  in  which  more  than  $3,000 
was  raised  for  food  and  medical  supplies,  and  a  national  symposium 
on  student  reaction  to  the  urban  crisis,  which  was  organized,  di- 
rected, and  financed  by  Wake  Forest  students. 

Several  new  scholarship  funds  have  been  established  at  the 
University.

Baptist  State  Convention 


Announcement  of  the  Junius  Calvin  Brown  Fellowships,  in  Law 
was  made  at  the  opening  convocation  for  the  1969-70  year.  The 
University  is  a  principal  beneficiary  in  the  will  of  Mr.  Brown,  a 
Madison  attorney,  who  died  December  31.  The  Eliza  Pratt  Brown 
Scholarship  Fund,  which  Mr.  Brown  established  in  1957  in  honor 
of  his  wife,  now  is  valued  at  more  than  $100,000  and  is  the  third 
largest  undergraduate  scholarship  fund  at  the  University. 

Dr.  James  B.  Willis,  retired  Baptist  minister  of  Hamlet,  gave 
$40,000  in  November  to  establish  two  scholarship  funds,  one  in 
the  Department  of  Music  and  one  for  the  A.  C.  Reid  Philosophy 
Fund. 

John  R.  Knott,  Charlotte  businessman  and  former  president  of 
the  Alumni  Association,  established  a  scholarship  fund  of  $38,000 
before  his  death  in  June.  Additional  gifts  in  his  honor  have  been 
made  since  then. 

A  new  stimulus  to  faculty  research  is  the  Reynolds  Industries 
Endowment  for  Professorial  Leaves,  which  will  make  available 
two  research  leaves  each  year. 

The  university  community  was  saddened  by  the  deaths  of  several 
close  friends  of  the  university.  They  included  Laura  Elizabeth 
Scales,  daughter  of  President  and  Mrs.  Scales;  J.  Wilbur  Bunn  of 
Raleigh,  former  General  Counsel  to  the  Trustees;  the  Rev.  Gilmer 
H.  Cross  of  Goldsboro,  a  member  of  the  Board  of  Trustees;  Dr. 
George  C.  Mackie  of  Wake  Forest,  former  college  physician  and 
former  professor  of  physiology  and  pharmacology;  Dr.  Taylor  N. 
Dodson,  professor  of  physical  education,  and  Dr.  Ora  C.  Bradbury, 
professor  emeritus  of  biology. 

Enrollment  this  year  is  3,184,  slightly  more  than  last  year.  This 
includes  2,511  students  in  the  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences  and 
School  of  Business  Administration,  249  in  the  School  of  Medicine, 
189  in  the  School  of  Law  and  235  in  the  Graduate  School. 

A  record  budget  of  $18,905,000  has  been  adopted  by  the  Uni- 
versity for  the  1969-70  fiscal  year.  This  represents  an  increase  of 
$2,095,608  over  the  previous  year.  The  figure  includes  $75,000  for 
redecorating  Reynolda  Hall  to  allow  for  additional  student  activi- 
ties. The  School  of  Medicine's  portion  of  the  budget  is  $8,798,116.

WINGATE  COLLEGE 
W.  T.  Harris,  President  of  Board  of  Trustees 
BuDD  E.  Smith,  President 

For  the  year  1969-70,  the  enrollment  of  Wingate  College  is  1,607. 
These  students  came  from  nineteen  different  states  and  twelve 
foreign  countries.  Approximately  fifty  percent  of  the  students  be- 
long to  Baptist  churches,  and  others  are  divided  between  more 
than  twenty  religious  denominations.  There  are  ninety  faculty  mem- 
bers, and  these  represent  study  in  more  than  one  hundred  and 
twenty  graduate  schools  in  America. 

The  budget  for  1969-70  is  $3,965,000. 

Listed  below  is  shown  the  total  indebtedness  of  Wingate  College: 

Principal  Interest 

Balance  Date  Rate  Purpose         Maturity  Security

$260,548  7-1-64  6%  Housing  7-1-74  Dormitory 

The  average  compensation  for  teachers  is  approximately  $9,000 
for  nine  months.  Fringe  benefits  include  hospitalization,  insurance, 
retirement,  social  security,  tuition  payments  for  graduate  study, 
fellowships,  moving  expenses,  free  tuition  for  children  of  employ- 
ees, and  travel  expense  to  professional  meetings. 

Wingate  College  Library  now  has  more  than  44,000  volumes  and 
is  considered  one  of  the  outstanding  junior  college  libraries  of  the 
country.  The  librarians  have  been  serving  as  co-editors  of  definitive 
publications  for  building  junior  college  libraries.  The  budget  for 
library  operation  during  1968-69  was  $81,000.  Three  professional 
librarians  and  twenty  scholarship  students  carry  on  an  effective  pro- 
gram for  service  to  the  students  and  faculty. 

Under  construction  on  the  campus  at  the  present  time  is  a  textile- 
engineering  building,  and  it  will  cost  approximately  $500,000.  This 
building  has  been  made  possible  through  a  gift  of  $500,000  by  Mr. 
Charles  A.  Cannon.  The  building  will  house  textiles,  engineering, 
physics,  and  mathematics.  Shop  areas  will  be  available  for  instruc- 
tion in  basic  textiles  and  other  business-related  fields,  particularly 
for  industry.  It  is  the  hope  of  the  college  trustees  and  administra- 
tors that  an  effective  curriculum  can  be  developed  that  will  help 
meet  the  personnel  needs  of  the  industrial  community  surrounding 
the  college. 

Also  under  construction  are  a  dormitory  for  277  students,  a  nine- 
hole  golf  course,  and  new  all-weather  tennis  courts.  In  addition, 
a  radio  station  has  been  approved  by  the  Federal  Communications 
Commission,  and  construction  will  begin  during  the  year.  It  will 
be  an  FM  station  with  stereo  facilities. 

The  number  of  commuting  students  for  Wingate  College  is  con- 
tinuing to  drop  at  approximately  fifty  to  one  hundred  each  year. 
This  gain  points  up  the  importance  of  Wingate's  serving  a  primarily 
resident  community.  The  trustees  have  planned  for  1,500  beds  on 
the  campus  and  will  hold  the  enrollment  around  1,600. 

There  are  approximately  two  hundred  employees  of  the  college,

Baptist  State  Convention 


and  each  is  keenly  aware  of  the  relationship  between  the  Convention 
and  the  College.  This  relationship  is  carefully  explained  to  every 
new  student,  and  it  is  believed  that  everyone  is  cooperating  fully 
in  the  promotion  of  the  Cooperative  Program  and  the  total  Con- 
vention program.  We  are  deeply  grateful  to  every  Baptist  in  North 
Carolina  for  the  encouragement  and  for  an  investment  in  our  pro- 
gram of  Christian  Higher  Education.  Our  philosophy  is  that  "An 
investment  in  a  young  person  is  an  investment  in  eternity,"  and 
our  business  is  education  of  the  whole  person. 

H.  DIVISION  OF  CHRISTIAN  SOCIAL  SERVICES 

1.  Baptist  Children's  Homes  of  North  Carolina,  Incorporated 

Olin  T.  Binkley,  Chairman  Board  of  Trustees 
W.  R.  Wagoner,  President 

The  Baptist  Children's  Homes  of  North  Carolina,  Incorporated 
provides  a  variety  of  quality  services  for  the  care  and  development 
of  dependent  children  and  for  strengthening  family  life.  Having 
moved  progressively  to  meet  the  challenge  of  a  changing  socio- 
economic order  it  has  become  a  family  service  agency.  This  is 
accomplished  by  members  of  a  well  trained  staff  who  provide  leader- 
ship for  group  care  programs,  foster  home  care,  family  services, 
consultation  with  churches  in  preschool  programs  and  planning  for 
higher  education  for  children  who  have  been  in  care.  This  program 
unfolds  on  the  various  campuses  and  through  the  work  of  regional 
casework  centers  throughout  the  state. 

More  requests  for  services  are  now  coming  to  the  Homes  than 
at  any  time  in  previous  history.  Agency  beds  are  filled  and  all 
available  money  is  being  utilized.  This  agency,  too,  has  been  caught 
in  the  rising  costs  of  living  and  in  an  inflationary  economy.  A  wider 
variety  of  quality  services  are  being  demanded  to  meet  the  needs 
of  children  who  are  the  products  of  today's  complex  society.  Present 
economic  conditions  make  it  necessary  to  have  additional  operating 
income  with  which  to  maintain  the  current  program  before  any 
appreciable  expansion  of  services  can  be  undertaken. 

Two  cottages  have  been  under  construction  on  the  Mills  Home 
Campus  during  the  past  year  and  are  scheduled  to  be  completed 
in  early  1970.  The  Stokes  Cottage  is  being  provided  by  Colin  Stokes 
of  Winston-Salem  in  memory  of  his  father,  the  late  Henry  S.  Stokes 
and  in  honor  of  Mrs.  Stokes,  his  mother.  The  Craver  Cottage  is 
being  built  as  a  memorial  to  the  late  Spurgeon  J.  Craver  of  Winston- 
Salem,  who  left  the  residue  of  his  estate  to  the  Children's  Homes. 

Two  buildings  are  to  be  erected  at  Kennedy  Home  during  the 
coming  year.  An  infirmary  is  being  made  possible  by  the  late 
W.  H.  Jones  of  Kinston  and  his  wife  Mrs.  Lula  B.  Jones.  A  recrea- 
tion center  is  being  provided  through  the  estate  of  the  late  Mr.  and 
Mrs.  C.  I.  Robinson  of  Clinton,  North  Carolina. 

Friends  of  the  Children's  Homes,  in  Western  North  Carolina, 
have  responded  generously  to  the  Founders  and  Builders  Program 
to  raise  funds  with  which  to  establish  the  Broyhill  Home  to  serve

children  in  the  western  part  of  the  state.  This  is  the  first  public 
capital  funds  campaign  ever  promoted  by  the  Homes  during  eighty- 
four  years  of  service.  Response  has  been  encouraging,  sufficiently 
to  assure  completion  of  the  project  within  three  to  five  years.  When 
the  campus  has  been  completed  provision  will  have  been  made  for 
four  cottages  for  children,  a  multi-purpose  administration  and  ac- 
tivities building  and  a  home  for  the  superintendent.  Work  is  now 
in  progress  on  this  Home. 

With  the  support  and  cooperation  of  Baptists  and  other  friends 
in  Asheville  and  Buncombe  County  another  ministry  is  soon  to  be 
provided  by  the  Children's  Homes.  A  residence  has  been  purchased 
in  Asheville  in  which  to  make  provision  for  the  care  of  unwed 
mothers.  It  is  hoped  that  this  program  can  be  started  in  early  1970 
when  the  Home  has  been  renovated,  furnished  and  readied  for 
occupancy. 

The  contribution  of  our  Baptist  people  through  the  Cooperative 
Program,  the  Thanksgiving  Offering  and  special  gifts  are  essential 
to  our  continued  operation  and  are  received  with  deep  appreciation. 
An  increasing  number  of  friends  are  finding  rewarding  stewardship 
opportunities  through  the  establishment  of  trusts  for  the  Homes 
and  by  means  of  wills  and  estate  planning  for  the  needs  of  dependent 
children.  Members  of  the  staff  are  available  for  consultation  in 
estate  planning  and  the  preparation  of  wills. 

2.  North  Carolina  Baptist  Homes  for  the  Aging 

William  A.  Poole,  Superintendent 

Never  before  have  your  Baptist  Homes  for  the  Aging  been  more 
conscious  of  the  Lord's  Presence  and  of  His  Goodness  than  during 
the  past  year.  At  a  time  when  the  economy  of  the  Homes  was  at  its 
lowest  ebb,  with  a  sizeable  deficit  looming  larger  by  the  moment, 
when  the  weather  was  at  its  severest  on  the  3rd  Sunday  of  February, 
the  day  of  the  Special  Offering,  the  churches  came  through  with  an 
offering  that  was  one  of  the  greatest  in  the  Homes'  history,  of  $130,- 
434.53,  as  of  our  fiscal  year,  October  1,  1968,  through  September  30, 
1969.  The  Lord,  who  is  in  charge  of  the  weather  and  in  charge  of 
the  Baptist  Homes  for  the  Aging,  has  surely  rewarded  our  faith  and 
moved  upon  our  Baptist  people  to  see  the  urgency  of  our  needs,  and 
we  are  grateful. 

Ours  shall  continue  to  be  a  relationship  of  trust  in  the  Lord  and 
faith  in  our  Baptist  people.  We  earnestly  hope  that  a  continued 
and  sustained  effort  will  be  made  by  our  churches  to  increase  and 
strengthen  the  amount  of  the  two  main  means  of  support  for  our 
ministry  to  the  Aging — the  Special  Offering,  and  the  Cooperative 
Program.  Through  these  two  sources,  one-third  of  the  total  income 
for  the  Homes  is  derived,  and  85%  of  the  residents,  who  are  finan- 
cially dependent,  are  cared  for  and  supplemented.  If  we  are  to 
continue  to  assist  these  many  needy  persons,  and  if  we  are  to  reduce 
the  deficit  in  the  operation  of  the  Homes,  brought  about  by  the 
rising  cost  of  living,  we  must  have  more  liberal  support  from  our 
churches.

Baptist  State  Convention 


We  do  not  believe  that  our  Baptist  people  would  want  to  curtail 
any  of  the  vital  ministries  of  the  Homes  and  that  they  will  respond 
to  this  urgent  appeal. 

Since  last  year,  the  Yanceyville  Home,  our  newest  Home,  has 
been  filled  to  capacity,  and  we  now  have  almost  200  deserving  older 
men  and  women  living  in  our  midst  there  and  in  our  other  four 
Homes,  Resthaven  and  Hayes  Home  in  Winston-Salem,  the  Albe- 
marle Home  in  Albemarle,  and  the  Hamilton  Home  in  Hamilton. 
These  wonderful  people  are  finding  much  happiness  in  Christian 
companionship  with  persons  their  age,  and  great  security  in  know- 
ing that  they  will  be  loved  and  cared  for  in  sickness  as  well  as  in 
health. 

It  is  a  deeply  rewarding  experience  to  see  the  light  and  joy  of 
Christ  on  an  older  person's  face  and  to  hear  words  of  deep  appre- 
ciation almost  daily  for  the  Christian  love  and  nurture  that  North 
Carolina  Baptists  are  making  possible  through  this  ministry.  We 
believe,  therefore,  that  our  Baptist  people  will  want  to  have  an  ever- 
increasing  part  in  so  worthy  a  labor  of  love  in  the  Master's  Name. 
We  know  that  the  Lord  will  not  fail  us,  and  we  also  believe  that 
our  people  will  want  to  be  as  faithful  as  possible. 

3.  North  Carolina  Baptist  Hospitals,  Inc. 

Colin  Stokes,  Chairman,  Board  of  Trustees 
Reid  T.  Holmes,  President  and  Chief  Executive  Officer 

Your  hospital  acts  as  a  referral  center  for  complicated  and  obscure 
diseases  for  people  all  over  the  state  of  North  Carolina.  Approxi- 
mately 150,000  patients  are  seen  in  the  service  clinics  and  the  private 
clinics  housed  in  your  hospital  and  medical  center.  These  sick 
people  came  from  every  one  of  the  one  hundred  counties  in  North 
Carolina  and  from  nearby  states.  Approximately  20,000  of  these 
people  were  admitted  to  the  hospital  for  special  care  and  treatment. 

Your  Baptist  Hospital  is  the  teaching  hospital  for  the  Bowman 
Gray  School  of  Medicine  of  Wake  Forest  University,  and  as  such 
is  expected  to  have  the  latest  medical  and  surgical  techniques  and 
the  newest  equipment  and  devices  available  for  curing  obscure 
diseases.  Practically  all  of  our  patients  are  referred  to  the  hospital 
by  local  family  physicians. 

During  this  year  construction  of  the  Paramedical  School  building 
for  nursing  students  and  the  School  of  Allied  Health  Sciences, 
operated  in  connection  with  the  Bowman  Gray  School  of  Medicine, 
was  completed  and  is  now  in  operation.  There  are  approximately 
ten  different  paramedical  programs  being  taught  to  produce  health 
personnel.  We  are  very  proud  of  this  particular  facility  which  will 
contribute  so  much  to  the  production  of  trained  health  personnel, 
not  only  for  our  needs  but  for  the  state  and  region  at  large.  Ap- 
proximately $1,000,000  of  the  cost  of  this  $2,500,000  building  pro- 
gram is  being  underwritten  by  the  Cooperative  Program  receipts 
from  the  Baptist  State  Convention. 

Since  your  last  annual  meeting  we  have  been  busy  in  other  build- 
ing expansion  programs.  We  have  finished  a  new  Power  Plant  to 
serve  the  medical  center,  and  a  five-story  addition  to  the  Medical 


OF  North  Carolina 


191 


School  and  an  auditorium  are  nearing  completion  for  their  use. 
We  have  increased  the  number  of  parking  spaces  significantly  avail- 
able to  patients  and  personnel  around  the  two  institutions.  A  new 
road  has  been  completed  from  the  East-West  Expressway  to  the 
front  of  the  new  patient  tower,  which  is  just  beginning  to  be  built 
after  several  months  of  excavation  and  placing  of  footings  for  the 
fourteen-story  building. 

Exclusive  of  the  Paramedical  School,  we  have  a  fund  raising 
goal  for  the  joint  medical  school  -  hospital  physical  building  pro- 
gram of  $30,000,000.  We  are  still  approximately  $6,000,000  short 
of  our  goal  and  have  plans  to  intensify  our  fund  raising  efforts  so 
that  we  will  not  have  to  borrow  more  money  than  we  have  already 
been  authorized  to  borrow  by  the  Convention. 

Hospital  costs,  and  therefore  charges  to  patients,  have  been 
greatly  increased  over  the  last  four  to  five  years  due  to  inflation 
and  shortage  of  medical  personnel.  It  has  been  increasingly  difficult 
for  sick  patients,  whether  private  or  service,  to  pay  their  hospital 
and  doctor  bills.  Consequently,  there  is  a  major  problem  in  hospital 
financing.  We  are  grateful  for  the  Mother's  Day  offering,  and  there 
is  a  great  need  in  light  of  present  circumstances  for  the  Mother's 
Day  gifts  to  double.  In  addition,  the  Cooperative  Program  funds 
for  the  hospital  should  be  doubled  to  help  keep  us  financially  sound 
and  able  to  perform  our  charitable  mission.  There  are  many  people 
who  are  medically  indigent  in  the  sense  that  they  have  enough 
money  to  live,  but  if  an  illness  occurs  in  the  family,  they  have  no 
means  of  paying  more  than  a  part  if  any  of  the  hospital  costs. 

We  wish  to  acknowledge  the  work  of  the  Board  of  Visitors  of 
the  Bowman  Gray  School  of  Medicine,  in  particular,  Albert  Butler 
as  Chairman,  and  John  Watlington  the  Chairman  of  the  fund  raising 
efforts  for  our  Medical  Center  Development  Program.  This  board 
has  done  a  monumental  task  in  helping  us  to  raise  money  to  pro- 
vide buildings  for  our  expanded  programs  in  the  North  Carolina 
Baptist  Hospital  and  the  Bowman  Gray  School  of  Medicine.

Highlights  of  the  Year 
Last  year  was  an  eventful  one,  within  and  without  our  denomi- 
nation, and  the  Recorder  endeavored  to  cover  it  as  completely  as 
possible. 

In  Baptist  life,  it  was  the  year  of  the  Crusade  of  the  Americas 
and  the  year  that  a  book  by  Dr.  W.  A.  Criswell  caused  considerable 
discussion.  It  was  also  the  year  in  which  "reparations"  were  de- 
manded by  James  Forman,  Negro  activist. 

It  also  was  the  year  that  the  United  States  Supreme  Court  said 
it  would  rule  on  a  case  from  New  York  State  that  could  affect  the 
tax-exempt  status  of  all  churches.  The  Recorder  ran  a  four  part 
editorial  series  on  this  subject  in  addition  to  numerous  news  articles 
and  interpretive  pieces. 

Outstanding  gatherings  during  the  year  included  the  Southern 
Baptist  Convention  in  New  Orleans  in  June  and  the  U.  S.  Congress 
on  Evangelism  in  Minneapolis,  Minn.,  in  September.  The  Recorder 
gave  extensive  coverage  to  both  meetings. 

Perhaps  the  biggest  story  of  the  year  was  the  liquor  by  the  drink 
battle  in  the  1969  General  Assembly.  The  Recorder  had  a  part  in 
four  straight  roll  call  defeats  in  the  House — votes  which  turned  back 
the  stiff  challenge  of  the  North  Carolina  Travel  Council  and  others 
who  were  pushing  for  liberalization  of  the  state  liquor  laws.  Thes-e 
same  forces  will  be  back  in  the  1971  General  Assembly,  in  addition 
to  those  who  probably  will  be  pressing  for  parimutuel  betting.  As 
in  the  past  year,  the  Recorder  will  be  on  the  scene  to  report  what's 
going  on  in  the  state  capitol. 

In  the  Recorder  family,  the  retirement  of  C.  W.  Bazemore  at  the 
end  of  1968  concluded  an  18-year  record  of  service  as  an  associate 
in  circulation  and  promotion.  Editor  Marse  Grant  completed  his 
10th  year  in  that  position. 

The  accompanying  financial  statement  looks  good  on  the  surface 
but  the  favorable  balance  was  achieved  by  the  staff's  doubling  up 
to  fill  the  vacancy  created  by  Mr.  Bazemore's  retirement.  When 
and  if  additional  financial  resources  are  available,  a  new  associate 
probably  will  be  added  to  the  staff.  In  the  meantime,  the  editor  and 
associate  Toby  Druin — with  the  help  of  the  entire  staff — will  do 
the  job. 

Without  the  support  of  its  nearly  90,000  readers,  the  Recorder 
could  not  carry  on  its  ministry.  Because  of  its  consistent  support 
through  the  years,  the  Recorder  will  begin  its  137th  year  of  service 
on  January  18,  1970.  As  do  other  agencies  in  Southern  Baptist  life, 
the  Recorder  looks  to  the  70s  with  great  anticipation  and  optimism. 

V.  REPORT  OF  THE  NORTH  CAROLINA  BAPTIST 
FOUNDATION,  INC. 

C.  Gordon  Maddrey,  Executive  Secretary 
During  the  fiscal  year  beginning  July  1,  1968,  and  ending  June 
30,  1969,  the  total  productive  assets  of  the  Baptist  Foundation 
amounted  to  $542,963.92  and  on  these  assets,  we  had  a  yield  of 
5.3  per  cent.   The  income  collected  amounted  to  $28,966.08  and 


13 


194 


Baptist  State  Convention 


at  the  time  of  the  report,  $20,313.56  had  been  paid  to  beneficiaries 
or  invested  as  the  contract  with  donors  required.  The  Foundation 
owns  non-yielding  assets  in  the  amount  of  approximately  $500,000. 
According  to  our  reports  from  our  Fiscal  Agent,  Wachovia  Bank  & 
Trust  Company,  The  North  Carolina  Baptist  Foundation,  Inc.  now 
has  total  assets  of  over  a  million  and  one-half  dollars.  The  total 
assets  of  the  Foundation  when  it  was  reactivated  in  1961  were  ap- 
proximately $350,000.  Peyton  J.  Brown  of  Raleigh  was  serving 
at  that  time  on  a  voluntary  basis  and  has  continued  to  give  unselfish 
service.  The  present  Executive  Secretary  was  hired  on  a  full-time 
basis  in  June  1962.  As  the  above  report  shows,  the  work  of  the 
Foundation  in  terms  of  dollars  and  cents  has  been  steadily  increasing 
during  these  last  years. 

In  the  promotion  work  conducted  by  the  Foundation,  many  will 
clinics  have  been  held  in  our  churches  throughout  our  state.  There 
seems  to  be  a  growing  awareness  that  Christians  particularly  are 
under  obligation  to  leave  a  Christian  will.  Just  what  final  results 
will  accrue  from  these  will  clinics,  only  time  will  tell.  The  Founda- 
tion does  have  evidence  that  more  of  our  people  are  making  wills 
and  that  they  are  remembering  in  these  wills  Christian  causes  and 
frequently  are  using  the  Foundation  as  the  vehicle  of  service  to 
continue  their  stewardship  in  perpetuity  for  the  cause  or  causes 
they  desire  to  serve.  The  desirability  for  a  will  becomes  even  more 
pressing  when  statistics  indicate  that  only  three  out  of  ten  adults 
have  a  will. 

The  Foundation  welcomes  the  opportunity  to  visit  the  churches 
in  our  Convention  and  is  anxious  to  be  used  in  will  making  clinics, 
individual  conferences,  personal  counseling,  and  in  any  way  we 
can  be  of  service.  We  are  grateful  for  the  cooperation  that  we  have 
received  from  pastors,  associational  missionaries,  church  repre- 
sentatives, and  numerous  friends  for  their  help  in  the  promotion 
of  the  aims  and  objects  of  the  Baptist  Foundation. 

VI.  REPORT  ON  CONVENTION  COMMITTEES 
A.  COMMITTEE  ON  MEMORIALS 

Man  desires  to  be  remembered.  It  is  said  that  between  the  charges 
of  the  second  battle  of  Cold  Harbor,  June,  1864,  the  officers  passing 
through  the  union  ranks  saw  the  men  sitting  on  the  grass,  under  the 
trees,  or  in  the  thickets,  sewing  their  names  on  the  sleeves  of  their 
coats.  Why?  They  expected  to  die  in  the  next  charge  and  they 
wanted  somebody  to  know  who  they  were,  how  they  died,  when  and 
where. 

No,  we  would  not  forget,  but  would — in  the  words  of  Robert 
Louis  Stevenson — "like  a  bird  singing  in  the  rain,  let  grateful 
memories  survive  in  times  of  sorrow." 

It  is  wonderful  to  come  to  the  end  of  a  full,  fruitful  day  and  lie 
down  to  a  well  deserved  rest.  Some  of  our  number  have  come  to 
the  end  of  a  full  life,  have  heard  the  call  of  their  heavenly  Father, 
and  entered  into  their  eternal  labors.  Here  one  often  becomes 
tired  and  weary  of  body,  mind,  and  spirit.  There,  their  labors  are 


OF  North  Carolina 


195 


ever  refreshing.  Maltbie  Babcock,  in  the  poem  "Death,"  said  it 
this  way, 

'This  is  the  death  of  death,  to  breathe  away  a  breath 
And  know  the  end  of  strife,  and  taste  the  deathless  life, 

And  joy  without  a  fear,  and  smile  without  a  tear; 

And  work,  nor  care  to  rest,  and  find  the  last  the  best." 

They  have  labored  well  and  their  "works  do  follow  them."  The 
world  is  a  better  place  in  which  to  live,  our  lives  are  richer,  and 
heaven  is  brighter  because  they  have  lived  and  labored  among  us 
and  are  now  casting  their  reflected  rays  down  the  corridors  of 
heaven. 

Lest  we  forget,  let  us  write  their  names  in  the  records  of  time. 
Let  us  here  and  now,  in  these  moments,  call  them  to  memory  and 
rejoice  with  them  that  they  have  heard  the  commending  call  from 
the  Master  himself:  "Well  done,  good  and  faithful  servant;  thou 
hast  been  faithful  over  a  few  things,  I  will  make  thee  ruler  over 
many  things:  enter  thou  into  the  joy  of  thy  Lord."  Mt.  25:23

C.  REPORT  OF  HISTORICAL  COMMITTEE 

Henry  Stroupe,  Chairman 

The  Historical  Committee  is  pleased  to  report  that  the  plan  where- 
by the  Baptist  State  Convention  of  North  Carolina  and  Wake  Forest 
University  combine  their  resources  for  the  collection  and  preser- 
vation of  Baptist  historical  materials  has  had  a  good  year.  From 
April  1968  until  September  1969,  Mr.  John  R.  Woodard,  Director 
of  the  Baptist  Historical  Collection,  was  on  active  duty  with  the 
United  States  Army.  In  his  absence  the  Collection  was  under  the 
direction  of  Mrs.  Jeanette  Smith,  a  professional  librarian  who  has 
now  become  a  member  of  the  staff  of  the  Wake  Forest  University 
Library. 

During  the  past  year,  the  Baptist  Historical  Collection  has  served 
its  public  in  a  variety  of  ways.  A  total  of  149  researchers  used 
the  library  in  person  and  several  of  them  visited  it  many  times. 
Among  those  who  came  were  people  from  Blowing  Rock,  Boone, 
Burnsville,  Duke  University,  Piedmont  Bible  College,  Southeastern 
Seminary,  University  of  Maryland,  University  of  North  Carolina, 
and  University  of  Virginia.  In  response  to  requests  for  information 
from  all  over  the  United  States,  the  Acting  Director  wrote  70  letters 
based  on  research  which  she  did  in  person.  Another  form  of  service 
is  Interlibrary  Loan,  by  means  of  which  books  were  sent  to  the 
libraries  of  23  institutions  for  the  use  of  scholars  there. 

The  staff  of  the  Collection  has  completed  two  projects  in  co- 
operation with  the  Southern  Baptist  Historical  Commission  of 
Nashville,  Tennessee.  One  was  to  compile  a  list  of  North  Carolina 


196 


Baptist  State  Convention 


highway  markers  relating  to  Baptist  history  and  the  other  was  the 
beginning  of  a  list  of  all  Baptist-connected  art  work  in  North  Caro- 
lina. The  list  of  art  work  fills  16  pages,  with  portraits  and  photo 
portraits  of  leaders  in  denominational  life  constituting  the  bulk  of 
the  content. 

At  the  time  of  this  writing,  the  pilot  volume  of  the  Biblical  Re- 
corder Index  has  just  been  completed  by  Mrs.  Smith  and  is  ready 
for  printing.  Copies  are  expected  within  a  few  weeks.  The  Baptist 
Historical  Collection  has  an  almost  complete  file  of  the  Biblical 
Recorder  from  1835  to  the  present.  An  index  is  almost  a  necessity 
for  doing  research  in  a  publication  of  such  enormous  size. 

Accessions  to  the  Collection  continued  at  a  steady  pace  throughout 
the  year.  Among  the  printed  materials  added  were  222  books,  81 
associational  minutes,  and  171  titles  on  microfilm.  More  than  7000 
items  were  added  to  the  vertical  file,  with  newspaper  clippings  on 
Baptist  affairs  the  most  numerous  category.  The  manuscript  records 
of  the  following  four  Baptist  churches  were  received:  Fairview 
(also  called  Pine  Creek  and  Bear  Creek)  of  Madison  County, 
1832-1876;  Winter  Park  at  Wilmington,  1911-1968;  Rockingham  at 
Rockingham,  1879-1962;  Hester  at  Oxford,  1837-1967. 

Several  churches  across  the  state  are  in  the  process  of  writing 
their  histories.  The  Historical  Committee  commends  this  type  of 
activity  and  urges  other  Baptist  bodies  to  preserve  the  records  of 
their  past.  All  institutions  and  organizations  are  the  product  of 
their  histories  and  must  understand  the  past  if  they  are  to  plan 
intelligently  for  the  future.  Not  only  churches  but  associations, 
agencies,  and  institutions  are  urged  to  write  their  histories.  Many 
biographies  of  North  Carolina  Baptists,  laymen  as  well  as  ministers, 
also  need  to  be  written. 

Particular  attention  is  called  to  the  fact  that  the  following  church 
histories  were  published  last  year: 

Hales  Chapel  Baptist  Church,  50th  Anniversary,  1919-1968.

VII.  REPORT  OF  TRUSTEES  OF  CONVENTION 

Trustees  of  the  Baptist  State  Convention  of  North  Carolina,  In- 
corporated, is  the  Convention's  corporation  and  body  corporate, 
and  it  is  the  holder  of  title  and  conduit  of  the  Convention's  prop- 
erty. The  corporation's  sole  purpose  is  to  serve  the  Convention,  and 
it  acts  only  under  and  according  to  instructions  from  the  Conven- 
tion, its  General  Board  or  its  Executive  Committee,  or  by  authority 
granted  in  Article  VII  of  the  Constitution  of  the  Convention. 

The  corporation's  actions  include  the  execution  of  deeds  of  con- 
veyance, deeds  of  trust,  contracts  and  other  instruments.  This  cor- 
poration's actions  during  1969  include: 

1.  The  Trustees  of  the  Convention,  composed  of  Emery  B.  Denny, 
James  W.  Reid,  and  Claude  F.  Gaddy,  was  organized  with  Emery  B. 
Denny,  President,  and  James  W.  Reid,  Secretary.  Acknowledgment 
was  made  of  the  long  record  of  unselfish  service  rendered  by  for- 
mer President  R.  L.  McMillan,  who  resigned  in  1968  after  having 
served  as  a  Trustee  since  1931.  Appreciation  was  voiced  also  for 
services  performed  by  T.  Lacy  Williams,  Secretary,  who  likewise 
tendered  his  resignation,  and  for  N.  M.  Gurley,  who  died  during  his 
term  of  office. 

2.  Executed  contract  with  the  Brunswick  County  Board  of  Educa- 
tion granting  the  use  of  the  facilities  at  the  North  Carolina  Baptist 
Assembly  because  of  a  fire  which  destroyed  the  school  building  at

Baptist  State  Convention 


REPORT  OF  THE  COMMITTEE  OF  20  TO 
BAPTIST  STATE  CONVENTION  OF  NORTH  CAROLINA 

Annual  Session  November  10-12,  1969 
Fayetteville,  North  Carolina 

INTRODUCTION 

The  Baptist  State  Convention,  during  its  annual  session  in  1967, 
appointed  a  Committee  of  20  to  make  a  special  study  of  Baptist 
Higher  Education,  and  instructed  the  Committee  to  make  a  full  re- 
port to  the  Convention  at  its  annual  session  in  1968.  However,  the 
Committee  of  20,  feeling  that  more  time  was  needed  for  the  study, 
requested  that  the  report  be  delayed  until  the  annual  session  of  the 
Convention  in  1969.  This  request  was  unanimously  approved. 

The  Committee  was  asked  specifically  to  "study  the  present  seri- 
ous problems  facing  our  Baptist  colleges  such  as  their  financial 
needs,  capital  improvements  and  operations,  their  problems  of 
maintaining  top  level  educational  facilities  and  faculties,  future  co- 
operation with  state  and  federal  government  and  future  relations 
with  the  Baptist  State  Convention."  The  Committee  was  further  in- 
structed to  "confer  with  the  leadership  of  the  Convention,  with  the 
administrative  leadership  of  our  Baptist  colleges,  and  with  any  other 
sources  that  would  help  with  a  solution  to  the  problems  of  our  col- 
leges and  the  Convention." 

In  keeping  with  Convention  instructions,  your  Committee  has 
offered  opportunities  for  all  to  be  heard,  consulted  with  administra- 
tive officers  of  our  Baptist  colleges,  and  studied  the  areas  which  you 
asked  us  to  investigate  in  the  Convention  directive  in  1967. 

The  following  report  is  the  result  of  many  months  of  study  and 
research.  The  findings  and  recommendations  in  this  report  have  been 
distilled  from  more  than  thirty  separate  documents.  Copies  of  all 
written  research  materials,  surveys  and  reports  have  been  bound 
and  may  be  examined  in  the  library  of  the  Baptist  Building  on 
Hillsborough  Street  in  Raleigh. 

Before  going  into  the  specific  areas  of  the  report,  the  Committee 
would  like  to  make  some  further  introductory  statements.  First,  the 
Committee  asked  each  Baptist  college  president  to  state  in  writing 
the  desires  of  his  institution  concerning  its  future  relationship  with 
the  North  Carolina  Baptist  State  Convention.  Without  exception, 
each  president  reported  that  his  institution  wanted  to  continue  the 
present  relationship  with  North  Carolina  Baptists.  Each  president,  on 
behalf  of  his  institution,  also  expressed  appreciation  for  the  fi- 
nancial support  which  our  colleges  receive  through  the  Cooperative 
Program  and  through  the  Baptist  College  Day  offering. 

In  fairness,  it  should  also  be  said  that  among  others  appearing  be- 
fore the  Committee  there  were  some  who  raised  questions  with  ref- 
erence to  whether  Baptists  ought  to  continue  to  support  any  col- 
leges. Almost  every  conceivable  type  of  opinion  was  expressed  to  the  | 
Committee,  ranging  from  supporting  no  Baptist  colleges  to  sup- 
porting a  limited  number  of  institutions.  However,  it  is  the  firm 
conviction  of  your  Committee  that  the  vast  majority  of  North  Caro- 


OF  North  Carolina 


199 


lina  Baptists  wish  to  continue  to  give  support  to  Christian  higher 
education. 

Another  great  concern,  and  one  about  which  a  variety  of  views 
were  expressed,  was  public  aid  to  higher  education.  The  whole  prob- 
lem of  public  monies  and  church-related  colleges  is  extremely  com- 
plex. However,  after  careful  consideration,  it  is  the  opinion  of  the 
Committee  that  Section  XI,  Article  D  of  our  Constitution  is  a  flexible 
instrument  which  at  the  same  time  provides  adequate  safeguards  in 
the  matter  of  separation  of  church  and  state.  The  Committee  also 
concluded  that  the  guidelines  set  up  by  the  Committee  of  25  and 
adopted  by  the  Convention  in  1958  are  sound.*  At  the  same  time  the 
Committee  recognized  the  need  for  equal  application  of  the  Con- 
stitutional provisions  and  guidelines,  already  approved  by  the  Con- 
vention, for  all  institutions  and  agencies. 

At  first  glance,  the  financial  requirements  of  the  Baptist  colleges 
for  the  next  ten  years  seem  enormous.  An  estimated  $200,000,000  is 
needed  for  capital  improvements,  current  operations,  and  endow- 
ment. However,  it  should  be  noted  that  the  immediate  capital  needs 
approximate  $27,000,000,  of  which  a  large  proportion  is  necessary 
to  meet  the  minimum  requirements  for  instructional  facilities. 

However,  when  one  considers  that  during  the  past  ten  years  the 
operating  budgets  of  these  institutions  have  moved  from  approxi- 
mately $6,000,000  to  $30,000,000,  and  that  more  than  $50,000,000  has 
been  raised  and  spent  for  capital  needs,  the  picture  is  brought  into 
better  perspective. 

As  important  as  the  relationships  of  our  colleges  to  the  Convention 
and  our  financial  needs  are,  the  Committee  hopes  that  these  two  con- 
cerns will  not  over-shadow  many  other  important  parts  of  their 
report,  including  the  complex  area  of  student-college  relations,  the 
vital  matter  of  accreditation,  the  importance  of  rapidly  developing 
inter-institutional  co-operation  as  a  viable  means  of  greater  economy 
in  operation  and  enrichment  of  curricula,  and  the  significance,  for 
our  own  Baptist  institutions,  of  the  development  of  strong  depart- 
ments of  religion  on  state  college  and  university  campuses. 

Finally,  the  Committee  wishes  to  express  its  appreciation  to  the 
many  persons  who  gave  endless  hours  of  study  and  research  in  pre- 
paring the  materials  upon  which  this  report  and  the  recommenda- 
tions are  based.  The  Committee  does  not  claim  that  it  has  either 
recognized  or  recommended  solutions  to  all  of  the  problems;  it  does 
feel,  however,  that  there  is  overwhelming  evidence  of  renewed  ap- 
preciation for  the  contribution  of  the  church-related  college  by  both 
church  and  society. 

One  of  the  greatest  endorsements  ever  given  private  higher  edu- 
cation is  contained  in  the  recent  long-range  planning  report  on 
North  Carolina  higher  education  of  the  State  Board  of  Higher  Edu- 
cation.! Of  further  significance  is  the  fact  that  the  North  Carolina 
Foundation  of  Church  Related  Colleges  in  1968  gave  approximately 
$700,000  to  church-related  colleges  in  the  State.

Baptist  State  Convention 


Your  Committee  is  convinced  that  this  is  not  a  time  for  retreat  and 
retrenchment,  but  a  time  of  challenge  and  change  when  a  united 
Convention,  through  its  Cooperative  Program,  should  move  con- 
certedly  to  strengthen  and  advance  every  phase  of  its  work,  includ- 
ing higher  education. 

GOALS  AND  RELATIONS 

In  a  swiftly  changing  world,  stability  depends  on  flexibility  and 
roots.  To  keep  minds  open  to  new  truths  and  yet  to  provide  the  deep 
and  lasting  supports  of  old  truths  —  this  is  the  challenge  to  Christian 
higher  education  in  the  crisis  of  today's  world.  The  best  way  to  pre- 
pare students  for  an  unknown  tomorrow  is  surely  this  combination 
of  openness  and  depth.  The  teachings  of  Jesus  summon  men  to 
change,  even  to  rebirth;  yet  they  also  counsel  men  to  hold  firmly  to 
that  which  does  not  change. 

The  Christian  college  seeks  to  follow  these  teachings,  and  the 
churches  which  have  founded  the  colleges  must  expect  that  even  as 
individuals  and  churches  grow  in  grace,  the  colleges  will  also  be 
exercising  the  power  to  become,  which  is  at  the  heart  of  the  Gospel. 

Any  rigid  structure,  personal  or  institutional,  is  precarious  and 
joyless.  A  rigid  Christian  church  or  college  is  unresponsive  to  Christ 
and  His  work  in  the  world.  Faithful  Christian  presence  calls  for 
flexibility  and  rootage.  Our  doctrine  of  church  is  sufficiently  flexi- 
ble to  allow  unity  in  diversity.  The  several  hundred  churches  in  our 
Convention  work  together  without  being  alike.  Our  concept  of 
colleges  requires  just  such  a  flexibility.  Cur  several  colleges  are 
different  in  history,  heritage,  and  the  means  they  employ  in  carry- 
ing out  their  purposes.  In  order  to  function  effectively  as  educational 
institutions,  they  need  the  freedom  to  operate  within  this  diversity,  a 
freedom  which  our  Baptist  churches  already  exercise  among  them- 
selves. 

The  Purposes  of  the  Christian  College 

In  spite  of  obvious  differences  in  North  Carolina  Baptist  colleges, 
even  casual  study  reveals  that  they  all  are  committed  to  a  basic 
Christian  purpose.  This  basic  purpose  is  built  upon  several  presup- 
positions. 

The  Christian  college  seeks  to  discover,  preserve,  and  transmit 
truth.  It  does  this  with  the  conviction  that  all  knowledge  is  of  God 
and  that  Jesus  Christ,  as  revealed  in  the  Bible,  is  the  integrating 
center  of  all  truth. 

Moreover,  Christian  colleges  are  committed  to  the  idea  that  truth 
has  ethical  dimensions.  They  approach  all  knowledge  from  the  frame 
of  reference  of  the  Christian  view  of  God,  man,  and  the  world.  They 
measure  all  values  in  terms  of  the  highest  standard  of  value, 
namely,  the  life  and  principles  of  Jesus  Christ.  This  is  done  without 
forcing  unexamined  beliefs  on  students  and  without  encouraging 
mere  verbal  conformity. 

In  the  Christian  college,  this  search  for  truth  never  limits  free 
inquiry  nor  does  it  discourage  the  questing  spirit.  It  completely 


OF  North  Carolina 


201 


supports  freedom  for  responsible  study  on  the  part  of  both  students 
and  faculty.  An  important  ethical  dimension  of  truth  requires  our 
colleges  to  maintain  high  educational  standards. 

Since  the  goal  of  the  Christian  college  is  to  minister  to  the  total 
person,  including  the  religious  dimension,  this  goal  is  carried  out,  in 
part,  through  a  curriculum  which  provides  courses  of  study  in  Bible, 
church  history  and  related  subjects;  through  chapel  services  which 
provide  a  genuine  worship  experience  for  both  students  and  faculty; 
and  through  the  personal  dedication  and  commitment  of  its  teachers. 

Of  special  concern  to  North  Carolina  Baptist  colleges  is  the  matter 
of  Christian  vocation.  These  institutions  are  deeply  conscious  of  the 
need  to  produce  intelligent,  concerned  and  knowledgeable  persons 
who  will  devote  their  lives  to  the  services  of  the  church  through 
its  many  specialized  ministries.  These  include  pastors,  missionaries, 
chaplains,  directors  of  religious  education,  directors  of  church  music 
and  many  others. 

However,  Baptist  colleges  are  also  aware  that  when  the  New 
Testament  speaks  of  Christian  vocation,  it  is  speaking  of  all  work 
that  is  honorable.  Training  lay  leadership  for  society  is  a  primary 
task  of  the  Baptist  college.  Because  of  this  special  interest  in  an 
inclusive  definition  of  Christian  vocation.  Baptist  colleges  show  ap- 
propriate concern  for  Baptist  students  in  their  admission  policies. 

This  two-year  study  by  the  Committee  of  20  has  revealed,  among 
other  things,  that  Baptist  colleges  are  taking  seriously  the  task  of 
understanding  and  meeting  their  basic  purposes  and  that  the  ad- 
ministrative officers  and  trustees  are  honestly  seeking  to  work  within 
the  framework  of  their  stated  purposes  and  goals. 

Because  we  live  in  a  constantly  changing  society,  it  becomes  neces- 
sary for  each  generation  to  re-evaluate  its  approach  to  Christian 
higher  education  and  make  adjustments.  These  adjustments  must  be 
made  on  the  part  of  both  the  colleges  and  the  churches. 

Points  of  Tension 

One  of  the  things  needed  is  for  our  Convention  to  face  frankly  the 
fact  that  there  are  tensions  between  our  churches  and  our  colleges 
and  that,  at  least  in  part,  these  tensions  arise  out  of  a  deep-seated 
misunderstanding  of  basic  goals.  In  order  to  find  a  solution  to  this 
problem,  we  must  begin  by  recognizing  that  a  college  is  not  a  church 
and  that,  conversely,  a  church  is  not  a  college,  but  that  both  find 
their  reason  for  being  and  unity  of  purpose  in  the  Lordship  of  Jesus 
Christ.  If  this  is  recognized,  it  is  possible  for  each  to  discover  and 
discharge  its  responsibility  in  the  Kingdom  of  God. 

Furthermore,  a  realistic  look  needs  to  be  taken  at  some  of  the 
primary  differences  between  a  college  and  a  church.  Somio  of  these 
differences  can  be  seen  in  purpose,  method  of  approach,  composition 
of  membership  and  internal  administration.  It  must  be  understood 
that  a  college  and  a  church  have  their  own  unique  characteristics  and 
particular  ministries. 

While  a  primary  task  of  the  church  is  to  preach  and  evangelize, 
the  primary  task  of  the  college  is  to  educate.  The  church  and  the 


202 


Baptist  State  Convention 


college  will  use  different  methods  in  approaching  their  basic  goals. 
But  this  does  not  mean  that  the  church  is  never  to  educate  nor  the 
college  never  to  preach  or  evangelize;  it  is  rather  a  matter  of  em- 
phasis. 

The  student  body  of  a  college  and  the  members  of  a  church  are 
very  different  in  composition.  A  Baptist  church  is  composed  of 
people  who  are  Christians  by  profession  of  faith.  A  Baptist  college, 
on  the  other  hand,  while  properly  concerned  about  a  Christian 
faculty  and  Baptist  students,  also  admits  students  from  all  other 
Christian  denominations  as  well  as  some  who  are  not  Christian. 

Having  previously  stated  that  the  common  ground  on  which  Bap- 
tist churches  in  North  Carolina  and  Baptist  colleges  may  get  to- 
gether is  that  of  a  common  need  for  deeper  commitment  and  a  better 
understanding  of  what  each  has  to  contribute  at  this  particular  time 
in  history,  it  also  needs  to  be  noted  that  too  often  churches  expect 
immediate  results  from  their  colleges  and  too  often  colleges  are 
impatient  with  what  they  believe  to  be  a  lack  of  understanding  on 
the  part  of  the  churches  of  some  of  the  basic  challenges  of  higher 
education.  In  evaluating  the  colleges  the  churches  ought  to  consider 
other  factors  in  addition  to  the  number  of  students  preparing  for 
church-related  vocations  or  the  moral  and  religious  climate  on  the 
campuses  at  any  given  moment.  For  just  as  a  church  has  high  and 
low  moments  in  commitment  and  dedication,  so  does  a  college.  Cer- 
tainly these  things  are  not  unimportant;  they  are  very  important,  but 
one  must  keep  in  mind  that  the  contribution  of  a  Christian  college  is 
very  much  like  that  of  a  church,  being  neither  immediate  nor  as 
tangible  as  one  might  wish. 

Our  churches  need  also  to  keep  in  mind  that  the  success  or  failure 
of  a  Christian  college  in  the  area  of  immediate  goals  and  objectives, 
such  as  church-related  vocations  and  student  conduct,  may  well  be  a 
direct  reflection  of  the  success  of  the  churches  in  these  same  areas. 
After  all,  it  is  in  the  churches  that  the  students  have  been  nurtured 
during  the  most  formative  years  of  their  lives.  In  some  instances 
when  they  come  to  the  college  campus,  they  bring  with  them  nega- 
tive attitudes  towards  the  church  and  its  traditional  faith  and 
moral  concerns.  This  is  another  concrete  demonstration  of  how 
badly  the  churches  and  colleges  need  to  improve  their  communica- 
tions in  order  to  develop  solutions  to  a  common  problem  that  is 
critical. 

Finally,  it  would  be  unwise,  if  not  dishonest,  to  fail  to  recognize 
that  a  certain  amount  of  tension  is  inevitable  because  of  the 
autonomous  nature  of  Baptist  life.  Baptist  institutions  of  higher 
learning  must  be  on  the  frontier  of  learning  and  must  always  be 
exploring  new  truths,  and  sometimes  new  truth  is  not  readily  re- 
ceived by  some  members  of  the  local  congregation.  On  the  other 
hand,  our  colleges — students,  professors,  and  administrative  officers 
— need  to  develop  more  patience  and  to  achieve  a  better  under- 
standing of  the  Baptist  people  in  North  Carolina  who  make  up  local 
congregations.  As  we  tolerate,  by  grace,  the  imperfections  of  our 
churches,  we  tolerate,  by  grace,  the  imperfections  of  our  colleges.

The  discipline  at  our  colleges  has  oftentimes  proved  itself  to  be  more 
effective  and  consistent  than  that  practiced  in  our  churches. 

The  Charter 

Another  significant  difference  between  a  church  and  a  college  is 
in  the  matter  of  a  charter.  A  Baptist  church  does  not  have  to  have  a 
charter;  and  the  congregation  is  at  liberty  to  operate  on  its  own 
terms  except  for  those  minor  regulations  imposed  by  the  government 
such  as  fire  laws,  zoning  laws,  sanitation  and  building  safety  codes. 
On  the  other  hand,  an  institution  such  as  a  college,  or  a  children's 
home,  or  a  hospital,  or  a  home  for  the  aging,  can  operate  only  by  and 
with  permission  of  the  state,  and  under  numerous  statutory  and 
constitutional  regulations  which  affect  almost  every  phase  of  the 
operation  of  these  institutions.  Baptists  have  never  operated  nor  can 
they  operate  their  educational  institutions  and  social  service  agencies 
solely  on  their  own  terms  inasmuch  as  such  institutions  and 
agencies  also  serve  a  public  function. 

Simply  stated,  a  charter  is  a  document  granted  by  the  state  to  a 
business  or  non-profit  corporation  which  enables  the  corporation  to 
operate  under  its  approved  by-laws.  The  charter  in  North  Carolina  is 
granted  by  the  Secretary  of  State  and  includes  a  statement  of  pur- 
pose of  the  institution  or  agency.  Except  for  certain  legal  require- 
ments, contents  of  a  charter  are  determined  by  those  who  apply. 

Constitution  and  By-laws  of  the  Baptist  State  Convention 

The  Constitution  and  By-laws  of  the  Baptist  State  Convention  and 
the  charters  of  Baptist  colleges  represent  both  a  legal  and  a  covenant 
relationship  between  Baptist  institutions  of  higher  learning  and 
the  Baptist  State  Convention.  For  this  reason,  the  Committee  of 
20  has  made  a  study  of  the  charters  and  by-laws  of  the  Baptist 
colleges  and  of  the  Constitution  and  By-laws  of  the  Baptist  State 
Convention. 

Over  the  years  the  Constitution  and  By-laws  of  the  State  Con- 
vention have  been  revised  and  the  charters  of  the  colleges  amended. 

The  Committee  of  20  in  making  its  study,  has  discovered  that 
while  there  are  no  major  conflicts,  in  many  cases  there  is  a  lack 
of  clarity  of  meaning  in  the  present  language  in  the  Constitution 
and  By-law  of  the  Convention.  Furthermore,  there  may  be  a  con- 
flict both  in  the  Constitution  of  the  Convention  and  in  the  charters 
of  our  colleges  with  Standard  Two,  Illustration  Two,  of  the  Southern 
Association  of  Colleges  and  Schools,  the  regional  accrediting  agency, 
which  requires  that  procedural  due  process  be  followed  in  dismissing 
a  trustee.  * 


*  Excerpts  from  Illustration  2  of  Standard  II:  "The  board  should  be  assured 
appropriate  continuity  and  independence.  Appropriate  continuity  is  normally 
assured  by  express  provision  for  individual  terms  of  adequate  length,  reasonably 
staggered;  and  for  removal  from  office  only  for  cause,  by  procedures  involving 
due  process,  desirably  by  the  board  itself.  The  board's  independence  is  normally 
assured  by  an  expression  or  an  established  tradition  that  the  board  is  inde- 
pendent of  outside  control  in  determining  policy  for  the  institution.  In  practice 
the  board  has  the  responsibility  to  exercise  its  independent  judgment  in  matters 
of  institutional  policy,  and  should  not  permit  itself  to  be  subject  to  undue  out- 
side pressures."  Standards  of  the  College  Delegate  Assembly  of  the  Southern 
Association  of  Colleges  and  Schools. 


204 


Baptist  State  Convention 


Other  illustrations  also  demonstrate  the  complexity  of  the  prob- 
lem. For  example,  there  is  the  statement,  "The  trustees  and  the 
director  shall  be  responsible  to  the  Convention  for  the  operation  of 
the  institutions  in  accordance  with  Baptist  principles."  The  question  i 
arises.  What  particular  Baptist  principles  are  to  be  considered?  It  is  ' 
evident  that  there  would  be  extreme  difficulty  in  defining  such 
principles,  say,  in  a  civil  court,  as  well  as  on  the  Convention  floor. 
Another  statement  says,  "No  change  of  policy  shall  be  made  without 
securing  the  prior  approval  of  the  Convention  or  its  General  Board." 
When  this  went  into  the  Constitution,  the  writers  apparently  had  in 
mind  something  concrete,  but  it  is  not  so  stated  here. 

Therefore,  the  Committee  believes  that  a  more  thorough  study 
ought  to  be  made  of  the  Constitution  and  By-laws  of  the  Convention 
and  also  of  the  charters  of  our  Baptist  colleges. 

Trustees 

Trustees  of  North  Carolina  Baptist  colleges  are  dedicated  Baptists 
who  give  unstintingly  of  their  time  and  energies  in  fulfilling  their 
responsibilities  to  their  institutions. 

Your  Committee  wishes  to  commend  the  Annual  Trustee  Orienta- 
tion Conference  which  is  held  each  year  for  the  trustees  of  all 
Baptist  institutions  and  agencies.  The  Trustee  Orientation  Confer- 
ence represents  one  of  the  concrete  ways  by  which  better  com- 
munications have  been  established  between  our  college  trustees  and 
the  work  of  our  Convention  as  a  whole. 

No  group  plays  a  more  important  role  in  denominational  relations 
than  the  trustees  of  our  colleges.  These  are  responsible  men  and 
women  democratically  chosen  and  elected  under  the  provisions  of 
the  State  Convention's  Constitution  and  By-laws  by  duly  elected 
Messengers  of  our  Baptist  churches. 

While  our  Convention  has  a  long  and  honorable  history  of  support 
of  its  trustees,  there  have  been  times  when  matters  have  been 
brought  to  the  Convention  floor  which  more  appropriately  should 
have  gone  first  to  the  college  administrators,  trustees,  or  both. 

Any  Messenger  to  the  Convention  has  the  freedom  to  raise  any 
kind  of  question  about  any  institution  or  agency  of  the  Convention. 
However,  the  Committee  believes  any  Messenger  to  the  Baptist  State 
Convention  has  the  prior  responsibility  to  have  stated  the  matter  of 
his  concern  to  the  administration  or  trustees  of  the  institution.  We 
call  the  Convention's  attention  to  the  fact  that  this  is  a  procedure 
which  our  Lord  counsels  in  Matthew  18:15-16. 

While  the  Convention  by  the  very  nature  of  Baptist  polity  must 
always  be  an  open  forum,  it  has  wisely  placed  in  the  hands  of  the  I 
trustees  and  directors  certain  duties  and  responsibilities  concerning  t 
its  agencies  and  institutions.  We  have  learned  through  the  years  that 
the  Convention  in  session,  while  fulfilling  certain  administrative 
responsibilities  for  its  institutions  and  agencies,  cannot  effectively 
function,  however,  as  a  super  board  in  substitution  for  the  respective 
and  duly  constituted  boards  of  its  individual  institutions  and 
agencies.

RECOMMENDATION  1 

We  recommend  that  the  present  relationship  of  our  institutions  of 
higher  learning  with  the  North  Carolina  Baptist  State  Convention  be 
continued  and  strengthened. 

RECOMMENDATION  2 

We  recommend  that  the  Convention  continue  this  Committee  for 
an  additional  year  so  that  it  may  engage  in  a  more  careful  study  of 
the  Constitution  and  By-laws  of  the  Baptist  State  Convention  and 
the  charters  of  our  Baptist  colleges  for  the  purpose  of  recommending 
[Note:  Carl  E.  Bates,  in  presenting  this  to  the  Convention,  made 
the  following  change  in  wording:  .  .  certain  clarification  in 
language,  if  necessary,  to  the  Convention.  .  .  It  is  in  this  form 
that  the  Recommendation  was  adopted. — LJB].  certain  necessary 
clarification  in  language  to  the  Convention  at  its  annual  meeting  in 
November  of  1970.  We  also  recommend  that  a  careful  examination 
be  made  of  the  charters  of  the  Baptist  institutions  of  higher  edu- 
cation and  the  Constitution  of  the  Baptist  State  Convention  to 
determine  whether  or  not  there  are  conflicts  between  constitutional 
and  charter  provisions  with  respect  to  procedural  due  process  in 
dismissing  trustees. 

THE  STUDENT 

While  it  is  not  within  the  scope  of  this  study  to  examine  all  of  the 
complexities  of  student  unrest,  the  Committee  feels  that  it  must  ex- 
press concern  in  at  least  two  areas:  student  participation  in  college 
governance  and  the  rights  of  students  as  citizens. 

The  current  revolution  sweeping  campuses  is  a  world-wide  phe- 
nomenon. From  Berkeley  to  Berlin,  and  from  Madrid  to  Madras 
there  have  been  massive  and  often  violent  student  protests.  While 
the  majority  of  American  college  students  has  sought  reform  rather 
than  revolution,  a  militant  minority  has  spread  havoc  and  terror  on 
campus  and  in  community.  Under  the  guise  of  civil  disobedience, 
militants  have  often  resorted  to  anarchy,  threatening  not  only  the 
orderly  process  of  education  but  democratic  government  under  law. 

This  militant  minority,  however,  ought  not  to  blind  those  who  are 
responsible  for  college  and  university  governance  to  students'  legiti- 
mate requests  for  needed  reforms. 

Participation  in  Governance 

Among  legitimate  academic  concerns  of  students  are  better  teach- 
ing, updated  curricula,  a  voice  in  college  governance,  and  more  re- 
gard for  the  student  as  a  person.  Another  closely  related  problem  is 
the  constantly  rising  cost  of  a  college  education,  which  threatens  to 
exclude  many  students  who  come  from  low  and  even  middle  in- 
come families. 

While  these  by  no  means  represent  all  the  concerns  about  which 
students  are  protesting  (e.g.,  the  Vietnam  war,  race,  higher  educa- 
tion's responsibility  for  social  reform,  etc.),  they  are  representative 
and  reflect  a  unity  of  thought  to  be  found  among  college  students 
around  the  world. 


206 


Baptist  State  Convention 


While  trustees  and  faculty  must  reserve  the  right  to  make  final 
decisions  in  many  matters,  there  should  be  established  regular  chan- 
nels of  communication  through  which  students  can  speak  and  be 
taken  seriously.  Students  must  be  made  to  feel  not  only  that  they 
will  be  heard  but  that,  where  indicated  and  where  possible,  prompt 
corrective  action  will  be  taken. 

Colleges  and  universities  are  discovering  that  students  can  make 
valuable  contributions  as  members  of  major  faculty  and  administra- 
tive committees.  Some  colleges  are  experimenting  with  limited  stu- 
dent representation  on  boards  of  trustees. 

Since  a  major  objective  of  the  academic  community  is  to  create  a 
climate  of  mutual  trust,  just  to  include  students  on  faculty  and 
administrative  committees  is  not  enough.  This  approach  limits  stu- 
dents to  the  level  of  problem-solving,  and  does  not  call  for  creative 
participation.  What  they  need  and  want  is  a  part  in  the  development 
of  educational  policy,  and  the  college  should  capitalize  upon  their 
constructive  interests  and  avail  itself  of  their  services  when  possible. 
The  Student  as  Citizen 

Until  relatively  recently,  the  doctrine  of  in  loco  parentis  (the 
school  acting  as  parent  to  the  child  away  from  home)  prevailed  on 
campuses  of  both  public  and  private  colleges  and  universities.  Un- 
der this  usually  benevolent,  sometimes  autocratic  system,  the  institu- 
tion could  expel,  suspend,  or  otherwise  punish  at  will.  Student  rights 
were  rights  conferred  by  the  institution.  The  student  as  a  person  had 
only  those  privileges  which  the  institution  chose  to  grant  him. 

For  a  number  of  reasons,  however,  the  doctine  of  in  loco  parentis 
has  undergone  considerable  erosion,  and  since  1953  courts  have 
tended  to  hold  that  a  college  education  is  now  so  important  that  no 
student  can  be  deprived  of  it  lightly,  capriciously,  or  without  evi- 
dences of  procedural  due  process  (e.g.,  stated  charges,  fair  hearing, 
adequate  counsel) . 

The  courts  also  have  held  that  a  student  may  not  be  deprived  of  his 
constitutional  guarantees  of  freedom  of  speech  and  freedom  of 
assembly.  Nevertheless,  it  should  be  quickly  noted  that  this  does  not 
mean  that  a  student  has  the  right  to  disrupt  the  orderly  educational 
processes  of  the  institution,  destroy  property,  or  violate  the  law. 

Moreover,  there  has  been  considerable  misunderstanding  about 
the  demise  of  the  in  loco  parentis  concept.  The  courts  never  have 
held  that  either  a  public  or  private  institution  cannot  require 
reasonable  codes  of  conduct  both  on  and  off  the  campus.  What  the 
courts  are  saying  is  that  colleges  and  universities  must  spell  out 
their  rules,  put  them  in  writing,  and  hand  them  to  the  student  at  the 
time  he  is  admitted. 

Disruption  of  Orderly  Operations 

North  Carolina  Baptist  colleges  to  date  have  been  extremely 
fortunate  in  having  had  no  major  student  confrontation,  and  while  it 
is  hoped  that  such  a  confrontation  will  not  occur,  the  disruption  of 
the  orderly  academic  and  administrative  process,  willful  flouting  of 
the  law,  and  the  destruction  of  property  cannot  be  tolerated.  Trus- 


OF  North  Carolina 


207 


tees  have  an  obligation  to  back  the  faculty  and  the  administration 
when  disruptive  groups  threaten  the  essential  operation  of  an  institu- 
tion. 

RECOMMENDATION  3 

We  recommend  that  the  administrators  and  trustees  of  each 
Baptist  institution  of  higher  learning  in  North  Carolina  re-examine 
its  procedures  from  time  to  time  to  be  sure  that  students  have  an 
appropriate  channel  through  which  they  can  be  heard,  and  an 
opportunity  to  participate  in  the  life  of  the  academic  community. 

RECOMMENDATION  4 

We  recommend  (1)  that  each  Baptist  institution  of  higher  learning 
in  North  Carolina  regularly  re-examine  its  policies  related  to  student 
conduct,  in  light  of  appropriate  standards  for  a  Christian  college; 
(2)  that  each  institution  state  these  policies  clearly  and  firmly  in 
writing,  particularly  in  the  college  catalogue  and  student  handbook; 
and  (3)  that  each  college  or  university  review  at  appropriate  times 
procedures  for  dealing  with  violations. 

RECOMMENDATION  5 

We  recommend  that  each  institution  be  prepared  to  act  swiftly 
and  deal  decisively  with  any  student  or  group  of  students  who 
interfere  with  orderly  processes  or  seek  to  impose  their  will  by  force 
or  violence;  and,  further,  that  each  administration  make  clear  its 
intent  to  use,  as  a  last  resort,  all  legal  resources  available,  including 
injunctions  and  law  enforcement  agencies,  to  protect  life,  preserve 
order  and  prevent  destruction  of  property. 

ACCREDITATION 

The  accrediting  agency  for  institutions  in  North  Carolina  is  the 
Southern  Association  of  Colleges  and  Schools,  a  regional  organiza- 
tion formed  by  the  voluntary  association  of  its  member  institutions. 
The  accreditation  of  an  institution  indicates  that  it  at  least  meets 
minimum  acceptable  standards  in  the  quality  of  work  accomplished. 
The  study  to  determine  whether  a  college  can  be  accredited  (termed 
an  evaluation)  is  performed  by  the  accrediting  agency  only  upon  the 
request  of  the  college.  The  evaluation  is  made  by  representatives 
from  member  institutions  of  the  Association,  some  of  whom  are 
usually  from  colleges  similar  in  size  and  character  to  the  institution 
being  evaluated.  Once  an  institution  has  been  accredited,  it  is  eligible 
for  membership  in  the  regional  accrediting  association.  Accreditation 
is  not  permanent,  nor  are  the  requirements  static  and  unchanging. 
The  accreditation  of  an  institution  is  reviewed  every  ten  years  on  the 
basis  of  another  evaluative  study. 

Accreditation  signifies  that  an  institution  has  reached  and  main- 
tained standards  related  to  eleven  categories.*

Colleges  and  Schools.  (Atlanta:  The  Association,  1966.)  30  pages. 
Purpose 


208 


Baptist  State  Convention 


Each  institution  is  judged  on  how  well  it  fulfills  its  own  stated 
purpose  and  goals,  and  these  are  neither  dictated  nor  questioned  by 
the  accrediting  agency.  For  this  reason,  there  are  no  minimum 
standards  by  which  an  institution's  purposes  are  judged.  It  is  im- 
portant, however,  that  the  faculty,  financial  resources,  physical 
plant,  and  educational  program  be  adequate  and  appropriate  to  meet 
the  stated  purpose  of  the  institution. 

Organization  and  Administration 

The  accrediting  agency  examines  two  items  very  closely:  (a)  the 
authority  of  the  board  of  trustees,  and  (b)  the  absence  of  external 
budgetary  control.  It  insists  that  control  of  the  institution  be  vested 
in  its  board  of  trustees.  Members  of  the  board  of  trustees  should  be 
representative  of  the  constituency  of  the  institution;  and,  further, 
the  board  of  trustees  should  have  stability  and  continuity  assured 
through  the  method  of  election.  Major  responsibilities  of  the  board  of 
trustees  include  establishing  broad  institutional  policies,  securing  the 
necessary  financial  resources,  and  selecting  the  president.  The  board 
should  not  be  subjected  to  undue  pressure  from  political  or  religious 
groups,  and  it  should  protect  the  institution's  administration  from 
similar  outside  pressures.  The  accrediting  agency  further  insists  that 
there  be  no  external  budgetary  control. 

Educational  Program 

An  institution  is  judged  on  its  performance  of  its  educational  func- 
tions in  accord  with  its  stated  purposes.  Accreditation  thus  furnishes 
assurance  to  the  faculty  and  administration  that  they  are  adhering  to 
their  defined  tasks,  to  the  students  that  they  are  receiving  proper 
value  for  time  and  money  invested,  and  to  the  supporters  of  the 
institution  that  their  efforts  are  being  invested  in  a  worthwhile  en- 
terprise. Admissions  policies,  curricular  offerings  and  instructional 
procedures  should  relate  to  and  implement  the  purposes  of  the 
institution.  Continuous  evaluation  and  improvement  of  instruction 
are  marks  of  institutional  vitality.  It  is  understandable  that  one  of 
the  first  concerns  expressed  by  prospective  students  is  with  respect 
to  the  accreditation  of  the  institution.  Accreditation  gives  at  least 
minimum  assurance  that  the  institution  can  attract  and  retain 
qualified  faculty  and  that  students  can  transfer  to  comparable  pro- 
grams in  other  colleges  and  universities  without  loss  of  credit  or 
question  as  to  the  quality  of  their  education. 

Financial  Resources 

The  financial  resources  of  a  college  determine,  in  part,  the 
quality  of  its  educational  program.  The  reverse  is  also  true,  as  a 
quality  program  attracts  financial  resources.  The  adequacy  of  fi- 
nancial resources  is  judged  in  relation  to  the  basic  purposes  of  the 
institution,  the  scope  of  its  program,  and  the  number  of  its  students. 
Private  and  church-related  institutions  should  have  a  history  of 
diversified  sources  of  income  in  order  to  indicate  stability.  Endow- 
ments are  especially  important  to  institutions  which  are  not  tax- 
supported.  Minimum  expenditures  are  prescribed  based  on  degrees 


OF  North  Carolina 


209 


awarded  at  the  institution  and  the  number  of  students  enrolled.  No 
body  outside  the  institution  and  its  board  of  trustees  should  exercise 
any  control  over  the  expenditures  of  the  institution,  as  such  control 
is  also  control  of  the  educational  program.  Such  practices  violate  the 
principles  set  forth  throughout  the  accreditation  standards. 

Faculty 

The  selection,  development,  and  retention  of  a  competent  faculty 
at  all  academic  levels  is  of  major  importance  to  all  institutions.  The 
relationship  between  faculty  objectives  and  institutional  purposes 
determines  in  large  measure  the  effectiveness  of  the  total  educa- 
tional program.  The  academic  preparation  and  experience  of  the 
faculty  are  significant  factors  in  determining  the  quality  of  the  in- 
stitution and  should  be  such  as  to  further  the  purposes  of  the  in- 
stitution. Faculty  standards  relate  primarily  to  the  educational  at- 
tainments of  faculty  members  (the  proportions  of  faculty  having 
master's,  doctor's  and  other  advanced  degrees),  and  to  institutional 
policies  and  practices  concerning  recruitment  and  selection,  faculty 
organization,  financial  security,  academic  freedom  and  tenure,  teach- 
ing loads  and  salary,  promotions  and  other  recognitions  and  re- 
wards. 

Library 

The  library  is  a  vital  instrument  of  instruction  and  should  be 
considered  a  part  of  the  academic  program.  The  book  and  periodical 
collection  should,  by  quality,  size  and  nature,  support  and  stimulate 
the  entire  educational  program.  In  addition,  standards  of  the  ac- 
crediting agency  deal  mainly  with  budget,  staff,  the  necessity  for 
excellent  library  service,  and  the  hours  per  week  a  library  should  be 
open,  and  buildings  and  equipment. 

Student  Personnel 

The  institution  should  seek  to  know  as  much  as  possible  about  the 
background  of  its  students  and  this  information  should  be  properly 
safeguarded  against  unauthorized  persons  and  uses;  there  should  be  a 
continuing  concern  for  the  total  welfare  of  each  student  including 
his  physical  and  mental  health,  development  of  capacities  and 
talents,  establishment  of  relationships  with  other  persons,  and  moti- 
vation for  progress  in  intellectual  understanding.  Accrediting  stan- 
dards relate  to  administration  of  student  personnel  services,  aca- 
demic and  personal  records,  orientation,  counseling,  health,  athletics, 
and  alumni  affairs. 

Physical  Plant 

The  physical  facilities,  including  buildings,  equipment,  and  cam- 
pus, should  be  designed  and  maintained  to  serve  the  needs  of  the 
institution  in  relation  to  its  stated  purposes.  A  master  plan  for  cam- 
pus development  should  be  maintained. 

Special  Activities 

Special  activities  consist  of  supplemental  and  special  educational 
programs  related  to  the  institution's  objectives  and  the  needs  of  its 


14 


210 


Baptist  State  Convention 


constituents,  and  include  extension  classes,  correspondence  and 
home  study,  foreign  travel  and  study,  conferences,  workshops, 
special  evening  and  summer  classes,  and  television  and  radio.  The 
standards  of  the  accrediting  agency  apply  directly  to  all  programs 
involving  academic  credit.  Special  activities  must  be  integral  parts 
of  the  total  educational  program  of  the  institution,  and  accreditation 
is  affected  by  the  quality  of  each  program  or  course. 

Graduate  Program 

Graduate  programs  are  courses  of  study  beyond  the  baccalaureate 
level  usually  leading  to  an  advanced  degree.  Research  and  training  in 
research  are  fundamental  in  all  graduate  programs.  Graduate  pro- 
grams should  not  be  undertaken  by  an  institution  unless  the 
academic  integrity  of  the  undergraduate  program  can  be  main- 
tained and  financial  support  for  superimposed  graduate  studies  is 
unusually  strong.  Factors  evaluated  by  the  accrediting  agency  in- 
clude administrative  organization,  competent  faculty  in  the  major 
and  supporting  fields,  and  adequate  library  and  laboratory  facilities 
for  advanced  study. 

Research 

Policies  relative  to  research  by  members  of  the  faculty  or  students 
should  ensure  conformity  of  this  activity  to  the  stated  purposes  of 
the  institution,  provide  an  appropriate  balance  between  research  and 
instruction,  and  guarantee  control  of  administration  of  the  research 
by  the  institution.  At  the  same  time,  the  investigator's  freedom  in 
research,  including  direction  and  communication  of  results,  should 
be  preserved. 

For  a  Baptist  institution  to  attract  and  retain  students  or  faculty  of 
high  caliber,  it  is  not  only  desirable  but  absolutely  necessary  that  the 
institution  obtain  and  keep  its  accreditation.  More  important,  it  is 
entirely  in  keeping  with  Christian  doctrine  that  a  Christian  educa- 
tional institution  should  not  be  satisfied  with  anything  less  than 
excellence  within  its  field,  and.  Baptists,  therefore,  should  not  be 
content  to  support  any  institution  of  higher  education  which  is  not 
fully  accredited. 

RECOMMENDATION  6 

We  recommend  that  the  administration  and  faculties  of  the  Bap- 
tist institutions  of  higher  learning  in  North  Carolina  be  commended 
for  maintaining  accreditation  by  the  regional  accrediting  agency. 

RECOMMENDATION  7 

We  recommend  that  every  effort  be  made  through  the  Council  on 
Christian  Higher  Education,  through  the  public  relations  depart- 
ments of  Baptist  colleges,  through  the  "Biblical  Recorder,"  through 
the  Baptist  Foundation,  and  through  the  churches  to  keep  our  people 
fully  aware  that  increased  financial  support  in  the  near  future  may 
be  necessary  in  order  to  maintain  accreditation,  and  that  existing 
sources  of  support  must  be  increased  and  new  sources  carefully 
explored.

INTER-INSTITUTIONAL 
COOPERATION 

The  primary  purpose  of  inter-institutional  cooperation  is  to  im- 
prove and  increase  the  quantity  and  quality  of  instructional  services 
on  the  college  level.  Among  the  growing  number  of  examples  of 
inter-institutional  cooperation  among  and  between  institutions  are 
student  exchange,  faculty  exchange,  joint  use  of  facilities,  joint  re- 
search, joint  public  service  programs,  joint  administration,  joint 
purchasing,  and  general  services.  Other  participating  agencies  are 
industries,  foundations,  and  agencies  of  local,  state  and  federal 
government.  Inter-institutional  cooperation  seems  to  be  one  of  the 
answers  to  the  problems  of  a  small  college  on  how,  at  minimum  cost, 
to  expand  its  curricula  to  meet  the  pressing  demands  of  today. 

During  the  past  ten  years  cooperation  between  the  colleges  has 
been  growing  rapidly  in  North  Carolina  and  throughout  the  nation. 
The  U.  S.  Office  of  Education  has  recently  inventoried  more  than 
1000  arrangements  of  mutual  cooperation  between  institutions  of 
the  nation.  An  example  is  a  recently  announced  bi-lateral  arrange- 
ment between  Meredith  College  and  North  Carolina  State  University 
which  permits  students  at  Meredith  College,  a  liberal  arts  women's 
institution,  to  share  the  University's  advanced  scientific  and  mathe- 
matics offerings,  while  the  University's  students  take  advantage  of 
Meredith's  music,  art,  and  other  academic  opportunities. 

Other  illustrative  agreements  in  North  Carolina  are  the  Council  on 
Christian  Higher  Education  of  the  Baptist  State  Convention  (seven 
institutions),  the  Piedmont  University  Center  (twenty  institutions), 
the  Association  of  Eastern  North  Carolina  Colleges  (twelve  institu- 
tions), and  the  Coordinating  Council  of  the  Western  North  Carolina 
Conference  of  the  Methodist  Church  (four  institutions) . 

Coming  to  the  forefront  for  recognition  are  the  agreements  be- 
tween colleges  and  private  enterprise,  whereby  mutual  advantages 
are  had  by  research  facilities  and  coordinating  opportunities.  For 
example,  the  North  Carolina  Computer  Orientation  Project  (spon- 
sored by  the  North  Carolina  Board  of  Higher  Education)  provides 
colleges  across  the  state  the  use  of  a  powerful  360/75  computer  in 
the  Triangle  Universities  Computation  Center  by  means  of  telephone 
lines  and  remote  terminals.  No  institution  alone  could  afford  such  a 
facility. 

At  present  there  are  233  cooperative  arrangements  existing  among 
the  75  North  Carolina  institutions  of  higher  education.  Suffice  it  to 
say,  all  of  the  senior  institutions,  state  and  private,  are  involved  in 
this  program. 

RECOMMENDATION  8 
We  recommend  that  each  Baptist  college  continue  to  explore 
possible  cooperative  arrangements  with  each  other  and  with  other 
institutions,  public  and  private. 

RECOMMENDATION  9 
We  recommend  that  the  Committee  on  Correlation  and  Instruc- 
tion of  the  Council  on  Christian  Higher  Education  explore  ways  of 


212 


Baptist  State  Convention 


utilizing^  the  services  of  Wake  Forest  University  to  assist  the  faculty 
members  of  other  Baptist  colleges  in  securing  graduate  degrees,  and 
further  that  the  Council  explore  all  avenues  of  cooperation  with 
other  colleges  which  might  prove  beneficial  to  Baptist  institutions  of 
higher  learning. 

RECOMMENDATION  10 

We  recommend  also  that  North  Carolina  Baptist  colleges  work 
with  the  Council  on  Christian  Higher  Education  in  seeking  to  avoid 
expensive  duplication  of  courses  and  programs  in  specialized  fields 
of  study. 

THE  DEVELOPMENT  OF 
DEPARTMENTS  OF  RELIGION 
IN  PUBLIC  COLLEGES  AND 
UNIVERSITIES 

One  of  the  more  significant  developments  in  American  higher  edu- 
cation in  recent  years  has  been  the  quiet  but  steady  growth  of  de- 
partments of  religion  on  state  college  and  university  campuses.  The 
study  of  religion,  which  was  once  the  almost  exclusive  domain  of 
private  higher  education,  is  now  taking  place  in  more  than  135  pub- 
lic colleges  and  universities.  Two  of  the  best  examples  of  this 
growth,  both  in  the  strength  of  faculty  and  in  depth  of  curriculum, 
are  to  be  found  at  the  University  of  North  Carolina  at  Chapel  Hill 
and  at  Florida  State  University. 

There  are  a  number  of  trenchant  reasons  why  this  development 
in  American  higher  education  has  taken  place:  the  growing  disil- 
lusionment within  American  culture  with  the  ability  of  a  purely 
empirical  science  to  meet  two  of  man's  most  deep-seated  needs,  the 
need  to  find  meaning  in  life  and  the  need  to  arrive  at  some  standard 
for  making  value  judgments;  changing  patterns  in  the  American 
home  which  tend  to  give  less  religious  training  than  before  and 
which  has  tended  to  lose  its  traditional  identity  with  the  church; 
recognition  by  teachers  in  other  disciplines  that  without  the  study 
of  religion,  a  vast  area  of  human  history,  culture,  and  complex 
personality  has  been  neglected;  and,  finally,  the  rapidly  expanding 
university  enrollment  and  the  steady  increase  in  the  proportion  of 
students  attending  public  colleges  and  universities  has  generated  a 
new  interest  in  the  study  of  religion  as  a  legitimate  academic  dis- 
cipline. 

Therefore,  with  public  colleges  and  universities  now  giving  a  new 
and  high  priority  to  the  teaching  of  religion,  how  much  more  im- 
portant it  is  that  church-related  colleges  reconsider  the  value  and 
place  of  the  department  of  religion  in  its  program  of  instruction. 

Because  Baptists  place  so  much  emphasis  on  both  intellectual  and 
soul  freedom.  Baptist  colleges  must  avoid  a  doctrinaire  stance  which 
gives  the  student  no  options  in  the  matter  of  discovering  and  de- 
veloping his  own  faith.  It  should  be  kept  in  mind,  however,  that 
church-related  colleges  can  take  a  legitimate  religious  stance  which 
public  colleges  and  universities  cannot  do. 


OF  North  Carolina 


213 


The  Danforth  Commission  Report,*  based  on  a  study  of  800 
church-related  colleges,  recommended  "that  church  colleges  make 
definite  provision  in  their  curricula  for  helping  students  develop  a 
philosophy  of  life,  a  faith,  a  coherent  and  reasoned  understanding  of 
fundamental  matters.  It  is  now  assumed  by  most  colleges  that  this 
goal  is  attained  indirectly  and  fortuitously,  that  it  is  not  an  objective 
toward  the  achievement  of  which  the  student  can  be  assisted  in  an 
orderly  way.  This  assumption  is  fallacious.  The  student  is  no  more 
likely  to  arrive  at  a  sound  world  view  effortlessly  and  by  chance 
than  he  is  to  master  calculus  as  a  by-product  of  studying  psychology 
or  music." 

Your  Committee,  therefore,  feels  that,  in  keeping  with  their 
purposes,  the  Baptist  colleges  should  develop  the  strongest  depart- 
ments of  religion  possible. 

RECOMMENDATION  11 

We  recommend  that  each  Baptist  college  at  regular  intervals  re- 
view its  program  of  religious  instruction  to  insure  that  it  has 
qualified  and  dedicated  faculty,  adequate  facilities,  and  the  necessary 
library  holdings. 

RECOMMENDATION  12 

We  recommend  that  each  department  of  religion  review  from  time 
to  time  at  least  the  following  areas:  the  role  of  the  department  in 
presenting  to  students  the  Christian  world  view  and  in  training 
laymen  for  service  in  the  church,  its  role  in  pre-theological  educa- 
tion, in  adult  education,  in  working  with  local  churches,  and  its  role 
in  relationship  to  other  academic  disciplines. 

FINANCES 

Our  findings  and  recommendations  concerning  finances  are  based 
on  more  than  fifteen  surveys,  research  papers,  and  separate  reports. 
We  believe  that  the  projections  of  financial  needs  of  Baptist  higher 
education  are  reasonably  accurate,  but  point  out  that  there  are  so 
many  variables  and  contingencies  that  there  will  always  be  some 
uncertainty  at  best.  The  more  unpredictable  factors  include  the  war 
in  Vietnam,  the  national  economy,  public  policies  as  related  to  higher 
education,  building  costs  and  student  enrollments. 

National  Picture 

American  higher  education  is  going  through  an  unprecedented 
national  crisis,  affecting  both  public  and  private  colleges  and  uni- 
versities. Private  higher  education  is  in  an  extremely  critical  condi- 
tion. Substantially  endowed  institutions  such  as  Harvard  University 
with  a  billion  dollar  endowment,  are  beginning  to  feel  the  pinch.  At 
least  twenty  liberal  arts  colleges  and  universities  in  the  nation  with 
endowments  totaling  in  excess  of  $1,600,000,000,  estimate  current 
annual  operating  deficits  of  $3,000,000,  and  by  1975  $45,000,000. 

In  1967-68  more  than  17  billion  dollars  was  spent  on  higher  edu-

cation  in  the  United  States,  and  by  1975  this  figure  is  expected  to 
reach  34  to  40  billion.  This  rapid  escalation  of  costs  is  due  to  in- 
creased enrollments,  necessary  improvements  in  facilities,  soaring 
building  costs,  rising  instructional  costs  and  inflation. 

Conservative  estimates  are  that  current  operations  will  increase  in 
cost  12  to  14  per  cent  per  year  for  the  next  ten  years.  One  of  the 
most  serious  aspects  of  rapidly  increasing  costs  in  higher  education 
is  the  estimate  that  by  1978  the  average  cost  to  a  student  in  a  public 
college  or  university  will  be  $2600  per  year  and  in  a  private  institu- 
tion $4900  per  year.  Both  private  and  public  colleges  and  universities 
are  faced  with  the  disturbing  possibility  of  pricing  themselves  out  of 
the  market  for  low  and  middle  income  families. 

North  Carolina  Baptist  Colleges 

At  the  present  time,  all  North  Carolina  Baptist  colleges  are  opera- 
ting without  deficits  and  have  been  able  to  reach  the  end  of  the  1968- 
69  academic  year  with  small  surpluses.  These  colleges  are  also  meet- 
ing the  minimum  requirements  of  the  regional  accrediting  agency 
with  respect  to  expenditures  per  student.  However,  the  relatively 
small  operating  surpluses  are  danger  signals  for  the  days  ahead,  both 
in  the  light  of  costs  that  are  certain  to  escalate  and  the  fact  that  more 
and  more  of  these  costs  are  being  passed  on  to  the  students. 

Income 

With  the  exception  of  Wake  Forest  University,  student  charges  are 
by  far  the  greatest  single  source  of  income  for  Baptist  higher  educa- 
tion in  North  Carolina.  Unfortunately,  the  Baptist  colleges  have  been 
forced  to  pass  on  to  the  student  and  his  parents  more  and  more  of 
the  educational  costs.  Investment  income  or  income  from  endowment 
accounts  for  a  negligible  proportion  of  the  total  income  of  Baptist 
colleges.  The  range  is  from  a  low  of  1  per  cent  to  a  high  of  10.3  per 
cent.  Wake  Forest  University  is  the  only  Baptist  institution  possess- 
ing substantial  endowment  income.  The  Baptist  State  Convention  of 
North  Carolina  provides  the  second  largest  source  of  income  for  all 
of  the  Baptist  colleges,  with  the  exception  of  Wake  Forest  Uni- 
versity. 

Current  Expenditures 

The  North  Carolina  Baptist  colleges  follow  closely  the  regional 
trend  in  increased  expenditures.  From  the  fiscal  year  ending  in  1958 
to  the  fiscal  year  ending  in  1969,  the  current  expenditures  of  our 
colleges  jumped  from  $6,055,057  to  an  estimated  $24,697,570,  while 
during  the  same  period  enrollments  increased  from  6,648  to  12,122. 
Thus  while  operating  costs  increased  by  more  than  245  per  cent,  en- 
rollments increased  by  only  68  per  cent. 

Instructional  salaries  in  the  period  1963  to  1968  moved  from 
$3,167,378  to  $6,675,248.  While  student  enrollments  increased  by 
about  22  per  cent  in  this  five-year  period,  instructional  costs  in- 
creased by  almost  100  per  cent. 

Library  expenditures  between  1963  and  1968  increased  from 
$441,120  to  $1,212,335,  or  approximately  300  per  cent.  The  cost  for 


OF  North  Carolina 


215 


plant  operation  and  maintenance  increased  during  the  same  period 
from  $958,048  to  $2,079,257,  or  more  than  100  per  cent.  Based  on  an 
annual  increase  in  operating  costs  of  12  per  cent,  it  is  estimated  that 
by  1978  a  total  of  $48,855,000  will  be  needed  to  meet  the  current 
expenditures  of  the  seven  North  Carolina  Baptist  higher  educational 
institutions. 

Capital  Needs 

In  projecting  capital  needs  for  North  Carolina  Baptist  institutions, 
the  colleges  were  asked  to  submit  capital  needs  figures  for  the 
periods  1968-1973  and  1973-1978,  in  order  of  priority.  To  insure  a 
realistic  picture  of  the  future  needs,  they  were  asked  to  include  in 
capital  needs  the  estimates  of  both  campus  improvement  and  special 
equipment.  The  total  capital  needs  estimate  for  Baptist  colleges 
during  the  next  ten  years  is  approximately  $58,000,000.  While  this 
may  seem,  at  first,  to  be  a  startling  figure,  it  is  probably  low.  It 
should  be  kept  in  mind  that  during  the  past  ten  years  these  institu- 
tions have  increased  their  plant  investments  by  approximately 
$50,000,000.  It  is  also  to  be  noted  that  a  very  large  proportion  of 
projected  capital  needs  is  for  instructional  facilities.  These  are  non- 
income  producing  buildings  which  are  necessary  to  maintain  aca- 
demic standards. 

Endowment 

The  Baptist  institutions  are  projecting  endowment  needs  of  ap- 
proximately $73,000,000  over  the  next  ten  years,  $44,000,000  by 
Wake  Forest  University.*  These  projected  needs  are  probably  low, 
but  realistic  in  terms  of  what  they  believe  they  can  accomplish. 

In  summary.  North  Carolina  Baptist  colleges  will  require  over  the 
next  ten-year  period  $57,933,000  for  capital  needs  and  $73,150,000 
for  endowment,  or  a  total  of  $131,083,000.  By  1978  current  opera- 
tion expenditures  by  the  Baptist  colleges  are  expected  to  exceed 
$48,000,000.* 

The  Committee  has  tried  to  examine  realistically  all  possible 
sources  of  financial  support,  taking  into  consideration  the  present 
financial  crisis  in  higher  education  in  the  United  States  and  particu- 
larly that  of  private  and  church-related  colleges.  There  is  no  question 
but  that  these  institutions,  in  addition  to  striving  for  more  economi- 
cal operation  and  imposing  some  self  limitations,  will  have  to  culti- 
vate intensely  all  possible  sources  of  income.  With  this  in  mind,  we 
make  recommendations  in  the  following  areas. 

Alumni 

A  recent  report  from  the  Ford  Foundation  indicates  that  only  52 
per  cent  of  our  college  graduates  nationally  are  aware  that  their 
alma  mater  has  financial  problems.  Far  fewer  actually  contribute 
anything  to  the  support  of  the  institution  which  they  attend.  Both 
business  and  foundations  are  tending  more  to  favor  colleges  and 
universities  which  show  unusually  good  annual  alumni  support, 


*  Bowman  Gray  School  of  Medicine  not  included. 


216 


Baptist  State  Convention 


which  still  remains  one  of  the  greatest  untapped  sources  of  revenue. 
Alumni  could  in  effect  provide  many  additional  millions  of  dollars  of 
endowment  by  annual  giving,  and  could  also,  from  time  to  time, 
make  special  pledges  to  help  meet  capital  needs. 

RECOMMENDATION  13 
We  recommend  that  each  Baptist  college  intensify  its  effort  to 
locate,  inform,  and  enlist  alumni  in  annual  giving  programs,  develop 
a  broad  basis  of  appeal  sufficient  to  reach  the  interest  of  all  alumni, 
and  establish  a  centralized  administration  of  all  alumni  appeals  for 
funds  in  order  to  avoid  group  interest  competition  within  the 
alumni  association. 

Bequests 

It  is  likely  that  most  large  gifts  in  the  future  from  individuals  will 
be  in  the  form  of  bequests.  The  trend  of  our  tax  laws  makes  it  in- 
creasingly difficult  for  individuals  to  accumulate,  hold  and  leave 
sizable  estates  to  future  generations  of  their  families.  Either  the 
government  or  charitable  institutions  will  be  the  ultimate  recipients 
of  the  lion's  share  of  these  estates.  Thus,  exceptional  but  fast 
evaporating  opportunities  now  exist  for  our  institutions  of  higher 
learning. 

RECOMMENDATION  14 
We  recommend  that  each  of  our  Baptist  colleges  place  strong 
emphasis  upon  bequests  and  obtain  such  personnel  as  needed  to 
implement  such  a  program  effectively. 

Cooperative  Program 

The  Baptist  State  Convention  Cooperative  Program  is  now  and 
will  continue  to  be  a  financial  lifeline  for  Baptist  colleges.  This 
financial  vote  of  confidence  by  the  Convention  also  has  had  a  sig- 
nificant effect  on  private  and  corporate  donations,  particularly  from 
Baptist  laymen.  If  the  present  financial  picture  holds,  however, 
neither  the  percentage  increase  of  Cooperative  Program  funds  nor 
the  dollar  increase  will  be  sufficient  to  keep  up  with  the  rapidly 
rising  costs  in  higher  education.  Nevertheless,  this  does  not  mean 
that  the  Cooperative  Program  income  will  lose  its  significance.  As  a 
matter  of  fact.  Cooperative  Program  income,  at  least  for  the  fore- 
seeable future,  will  continue  to  be  the  largest  single  source  of 
revenue  for  Baptist  colleges  apart  from  student  charges. 

The  Baptist  State  Convention  entered  into  a  contract  in  1946  with 
the  Z.  Smith  Reynolds  Foundation  in  which  the  Convention  agreed 
in  perpetuity  to  contribute  to  Wake  Forest  University  not  less  than 
7.5  per  cent  of  the  total  Cooperative  Program  distributable  funds 
(less  certain  deductible  items*),  in  return  for  which  the  Foundation 
agreed  in  perpetuity  to  Wake  Forest  University  the  sum  of  $350,000 
per  year,  or  the  net  income  of  the  Foundation  if  less  than  $350,000. 
However,  the  Foundation  is  now  contributing  more  than  twice  the

Missions,  Children's  Homes,  Special  Mission  Projects.

promised  amount.  Since  the  inception  of  the  agreement,  the  Founda- 
tion has  increased  its  perpetual  annual  gift  to  $620,000  and  is 
presently  committed  to  give  an  additional  annual  gift  of  $120,000  for 
the  years  1968  through  1972. 

If  the  proportion  of  our  state  Cooperative  Program  distributable 
funds  to  our  seven  colleges  is  further  reduced,  the  formula  for 
distribution  of  funds  to  the  colleges  could  well  be  destroyed.  In  view 
of  the  fact  that  the  Wake  Forest  share  of  such  funds  was  right  at  the 
irreducible  minimum  in  1968,  if  the  percentage  of  distribution  to  the 
colleges  as  a  whole  is  reduced  below  the  1968  level,  the  funds  must 
be  taken  away  from  the  other  six  colleges. 

Inasmuch  as  a  minimum  of  3  3 1/3  per  cent  of  the  distributable 
Cooperative  Program  dollar  has  been  set  as  the  amount  which  North 
Carolina  Baptists  must  contribute  each  year  to  Southwlde  causes, 
and  in  light  of  the  Convention  contract  with  the  Z.  Smith  Reynolds 
Foundation  to  the  effect  that  the  Convention's  contribution  to  Wake 
Forest  cannot  drop  below  7.5  per  cent  of  the  total  Cooperative 
Program  funds,  it  is  imperative  that  a  floor  be  put  under  distribution 
of  Cooperative  Program  funds  to  the  other  Baptist  colleges  in  North 
Carolina. 

RECOMMENDATION  15 

We  recommend  that  the  Executive  Committee  and  the  General 
Board  in  makings  its  annual  budget  request  to  the  Convention  keep 
in  mind  that  should  the  percentage  going  to  the  Baptist  colleges  fall 
below  the  1968  level,  a  most  serious  problem  could  be  created.  We 
further  recommend  that  this  percentage  be  increased  as  soon  as 
possible  in  the  light  of  the  serious  financial  needs  of  our  colleges. 

Endowment  Funds 

National  studies  have  recently  indicated  that  most  private  colleges 
and  universities  are  now  receiving  from  one  to  one  and  one-half  per 
cent  less  income  from  their  investments  than  they  should  be  realiz- 
ing. Two  reasons  have  been  cited  for  this  situation:  over  caution  in 
investments  and  the  absence  of  competent  counsel  and  long-range 
planning. 

RECOMMENDATION  16 

We  recommend  that  each  Baptist  college  make  use  of  professional 
consultants  for  reviewing  procedures  and  principles  of  investment 
with  the  view  to  increasing  endowment  income. 

Indebtedness 

Most  private,  church-related  institutions  in  recent  years  have 
been  forced  to  borrow  money  to  replace  obsolete  facilities  and  to 
build  libraries  and  classroom  facilities  which  will  meet  standards 
for  accreditation.  However,  there  is  a  point  beyond  which  indebted- 
ness can  defeat  the  very  purpose  for  which  the  money  was  borrowed. 

RECOMMENDATION  17 

We  recommend  that  during  this  inflationary  period  and  in  the 
face  of  the  increasing  high  rates  cf  interest,  all  Baptist  institutions 


218 


Baptist  State  Convention 


of  higher  learning  in  North  Carolina  liquidate  indebtedness  as 
quickly  as  possible,  and  for  the  foreseeable  future  incur  new  debts 
with  great  caution. 

Limited  Enrollments 

Finances  and  quality  education  are  so  bound  up  together  that 
the  matter  of  enrollment  is  extremely  important.  The  consensus 
among  knowledgeable  educators  is  that  small  private  colleges  must 
watch  expanding  enrollments  very  carefully.  Normally,  when  en- 
rollments are  expanded,  both  the  operational  costs  and  capital  re- 
quirements expand  sharply.  Since,  in  most  cases,  we  are  now  almost 
at  the  limit  of  costs  that  can  be  passed  on  to  the  student,  the  need 
for  funds  from  outside  sources  will  appreciably  increase  as  enroll- 
ments grow. 

RECOMMENDATION  18 

We  recommend  that  the  administration  and  board  of  trustees  of 
each  of  our  colleges,  with  the  assistance  of  professional  consultants, 
give  high  priority  to  matching  optimum  enrollments  with  available 
resources  and  existing  facilities. 

Tuition  Differential 

Public  colleges  and  universities  are  required  by  law  to  charge  a 
tuition  differential  for  out-of-state  students,  i.e.,  higher  tuition  than 
that  charged  North  Carolina  residents.  Some  of  our  Baptist  colleges 
are  already  charging  such  a  differential.  A  tuition  differential  does 
not  necessarily  decrease  attendance  of  students  from  beyond  the 
borders  of  this  State,  because  even  with  the  differential,  tuition 
charges  in  North  Carolina  are  a  bargain  when  compared  with 
charges  in  many  other  states.  Those  Baptist  colleges  which  have 
already  inaugurated  this  program  report  that  they  have  experienced 
no  adverse  effects. 

RECOMMENDATION  19 

We  recommend  that  each  institution  of  higher  learning  give 
strong  consideration  to  the  possibility  of  charging  proportionately 
higher  tuition  to  out-of-state  students. 

Long-range  Planning  and  Efficiency  in  Operation 

Recent  national  studies  have  indicated  that  many  private  colleges 
and  universities  could  effect  substantial  savings  in  both  building 
costs  and  current  operations  by  securing  expert  advice  and  counsel 
in  long-range  planning. 

RECOMMENDATION  20 

We  recommend  that  each  North  Carolina  Baptist  institution  of 
higher  learning  take  full  advantage  of  long-range  planning  both  for 
current  operations  and  in  plant  development,  and  that  advice  of 
experts  in  plant  development,  business  management,  investment  of 
funds,  and  curriculum  development  be  sought  regularly,  with  the 
aim  of  achieving  the  most  efficient  operation  possible.

Public  Funds  and  Private  Institutions  of  Higher  Education 

The  issue  of  public  funds  for  private  institutions  of  higher  educa- 
tion poses  special  problems  for  Baptists  in  the  light  of  our  historic 
witness  to  religious  liberty  as  protected  by  the  principle  of  separa- 
tion of  church  and  state.  We  must  continue  to  champion  the  cause 
of  the  free,  uncoerced  religious  conscience.  And  so  we  must  stand 
firm  on  the  principle  that  no  public  funds  can  be  used  as  direct  aid 
to  religious  institutions  for  the  purely  sectarian  interests  of  such 
institutions.  However,  on  the  question  of  "indirect  aid"  or  coopera- 
tive efforts  on  the  part  of  church  and  state  "for  the  public  good" 
or  for  "services  rendered,"  new  interpretations  of  church-state  re- 
lationships are  needed  in  the  light  of  our  historical  and  cultural 
situation. 

The  elements  which  need  further  examination  as  we  continue 
to  protect  that  free  religious  conscience  are  as  follows:  (1)  a  clear 
understanding  of  the  nature  and  extent  of  "indirect  aid";  (2)  a  clear 
understanding  of  the  nature  and  extent  of  what  "services  ren- 
dered" means;  (3)  the  relation  of  the  "separation  principle"  to 
individual  religious  liberty;  and  (4)  a  careful  examination  of 
the  significant  court  cases  that  bear  upon  the  whole  matter. 

The  Issue  of  Indirect  Aid.  "Direct  aid"  to  religious  institutions 
for  the  propagation  of  religious  beliefs  and  support  of  other  dis- 
tinctly religious  functions  is  clearly  in  violation  of  the  First  Amend- 
ment of  the  Constitution  of  the  United  States. 

"Indirect  aid"  to  churches  and  religious  institutions  has  been  an 
inevitable  part  of  church-state  relations;  such  aid  as  the  tax-exempt 
status  of  churches,  fire  and  police  protection,  subsidized  postal  rates, 
and  income  tax  deductions  for  contributions  to  churches  and  char- 
ities, to  name  but  a  few  examples. 

Quite  clearly  the  enabling  legislation  making  public  funds  avail- 
able to  private  colleges  looks  upon  such  assistance  as  constituting 
not  aid  to  religion  but  to  the  "national  interest"  and  "common 
good"  whose  main  beneficiary  is  the  individual  student. 

Government  sees  its  role  as  fulfilling  its  responsibility  for  the 
"health,  education  and  welfare"  of  its  citizens.  The  government 
recognizes  what  we  have  long  overlooked:  our  colleges  fulfill  a  dual 
function — the  public  function  of  general  education  and  the  sec- 
tarian function  of  religious  education.  The  Congress  has  carefully 
written  the  Higher  Education  Acts  so  as  to  aid  private  colleges  only 
in  their  public  function;  they  prohibit  "direct  aid"  to  the  religious 
functions  of  private  institutions. 

The  Education  Acts,  while  giving  aid  to  the  public  function  for 
the  "common  good,"  are  not  unmindful  of  the  indirect  aid  which 
such  funds  provide;  nor  is  such  indirect  aid  prohibited.  The  prin- 
ciple of  separation  of  church  and  state  is  not  thereby  violated  since 
the  basic  freedom  of  the  individual  religious  conscience  is  pro- 
tected, as  well  as  the  freedom  and  integrity  of  religious  institutions. 

The  Issue  of  "Services  Rendered."  The  government  looks  upon 
funds  expended  for  programs  that  are  available  to  private  colleges 
as  expenditures  for  "services  rendered."  Many  of  the  programs 


220 


Baptist  State  Convention 


available  are  on  a  contractual  basis.  The  government  sees  itself  as 
purchasing  services  for  the  general  welfare.  The  Congress  is  satis- 
fied that  the  constitutional  requirements  have  been  met. 

Again,  the  legislation  specifically  forbids  such  funds  to  be  used 
for  any  direct  sectarian  purpose;  they  can  be  applied  only  to  those 
areas  in  which  private  institutions  already  overlap  the  function  of 
public  institutions  in  serving  the  "public  good." 

The  Higher  Education  Acts,  therefore,  are  in  harmony  with 
Article  XI,  Section  D  of  the  Constitution  of  our  Baptist  State  Con- 
vention.* 

The  Relation  of  the  Separation  Principle  to  Individual  Religious 
Liberty.  "Indirect  aid"  of  many  kinds  has  existed  from  the  founding 
of  the  nation  without  violation  of  the  First  Amendment  clauses  re- 
lated to  religious  liberty  and  religious  institutions.  Baptist  churches 
and  institutions  have  been  inextricably  involved  in  such  "indirect 
aid,"  which  in  no  instance  has  restricted  personal  religious  liberty  or 
the  life  and  worship  of  local  congregations,  or  the  life  of  our  re- 
ligious institutions. 

The  major  question  concerns  the  protection  of  the  individual  con- 
science and  the  inviolate  integrity  of  religious  institutions.  Where 
both  are  protected  in  any  cooperative  action  with  the  state,  such 
cooperation  is  both  desirable  and  necessary. 

To  participate  in  such  cooperative  efforts  is  but  to  add  the  prin- 
ciple of  "cooperation"  to  the  complex  subject  of  church-state  rela- 
tions. Nor  does  it  mean  the  surrender  of  the  "principle  of  separa- 
tion" where  that  principle  more  aptly  applies,  as  always  in  regard 
to  the  matter  of  "direct  aid"  to  religious  institutions.  The  New 
Testament  principle  is  the  freedom  of  the  soul  before  God.  The 
"separation  principle"  is  a  policy  which  protects  such  freedom  un- 
der certain  conditions  in  church-state  relations.  The  "principle  of 
cooperation"  may  be  the  better  policy  under  another  set  of  cir- 
cumstances. 

Denominations  which  have  participated  in  the  available  Federal 
higher  education  programs  produce  no  evidence  of  any  instance 
where  individual  religious  liberty  has  been  infringed  or  coerced; 
no  church  has  been  closed  or  restricted  in  its  worship  or  min- 
istries, and  no  institution  has  been  restricted  in  its  distinctly  reli- 
gious purposes. 

Church  cooperation  with  the  state  in  areas  of  mutual  concern 
can  strengthen  service  to  the  common  good  by  both  church  and 
state,  while  still  safeguarding  the  religious  conscience  in  ways  not 
possible  through  rigid  insistence  on  absolute  separation. 

The  government  sees  itself  as  a  partner  with  the  private  sector 
in  the  educational  enterprise.  It  sees  clearly  the  wisdom  and 
necessity  of  maintaining  the  dual  system  of  education. 


*  Constitution,  North  Carolina  Baptist  State  Convention,  Article  XI,  Section  D. 
"Neither  the  Convention,  nor  any  institution  or  agency,  owned  or  supported  in 
whole  or  in  part  by  the  Convention,  shall  accept  or  receive,  directly  or  indi-

OF  North  Carolina 


221 


The  Supreme  Court  of  the  United  States  has  recognized  that  (we 
are  a  religious  people  and  that)  religious  institutions  must  be  pro- 
tected if  our  society  is  to  remain  free.  "Cooperation"  as  well  as 
"separation"  can  protect  the  freedom  of  the  individual  conscience 
in  matters  of  religious  conviction  and  practice.  Likewise  our  re- 
ligious institutions  can  be  protected,  since  the  agreements  of  co- 
operation are  so  written  as  to  prohibit  any  control  by  the  govern- 
ment over  the  institution's  purposes,  religious  functions  or  any 
phase  of  the  inner  life  of  the  institution. 

An  Examination  of  Significant  Court  Cases.  Supreme  Court  cases 
in  the  past  twenty  years  have  clarified  the  following  matters:  the 
health,  safety  and  general  benefit  of  the  individual  can  be  met  by 
public  funds  for  the  "common  good"  without  violating  the  First 
Amendment  (Everson,  1947);  standing  has  been  granted  an  indivi- 
dual to  test  the  constitutionality  of  a  law  (Flast,  1968);  textbooks 
can  be  supplied  under  certain  conditions  to  students  in  private 
schools  (Board  of  Education,  1968). 

More  recently,  (Horace  Mann  League  vs.  Board  of  Public  Works, 
1967)  the  Supreme  Court  refused  to  hear  a  decision  rendered  by 
the  appellate  court  of  Maryland,  in  effect  sustaining  the  Maryland 
Court  which  determined  the  "degree  of  religiosity"  in  granting  pub- 
lic funds  to  one  college  while  denying  funds  to  three  other  colleges 
in  Maryland.  The  relation  of  this  court  action  to  the  Higher  Edu- 
cation Acts  is  not  yet  clear.  More  significant  is  the  case  recently 
decided  by  the  Supreme  Court  of  the  United  States  relating  to  a 
Vermont  case  similar  to  the  Maryland  one  cited  above.  Under 
Rule  60,  the  Supreme  Court  dismissed  the  case,  in  effect  sustaining 
the  Vermont  Supreme  Court  ruling  that  the  Vermont  Educational 
Buildings  Financial  Agency  was  constitutionally  valid. 

Further  tests  will  likely  have  to  be  made  to  see  how  far  the  Mary- 
land and  Vermont  decisions  apply  to  all  the  Education  Acts  and 
programs  of  the  Federal  Government.  Such  testing  may  take  a  num- 
ber of  years,  thus  leaving  the  final  clarification  of  the  constitu- 
tionality of  such  acts  hanging  in  the  balance. 

Colleges,  both  public  and  private,  would  be  wise  to  avoid  becom- 
ing too  deeply  involved  in  government  programs  until  the  constitu- 
tional question  is  finally  resolved.  The  government,  however,  is  in 
the  educational  enterprise  to  stay.  It  is  not  likely,  therefore,  that 
the  Educational  Acts  in  their  entirety  will  be  declared  unconstitu- 
tional. The  unavailability  of  funds  for  the  various  programs  might 
well  be  more  serious  than  the  constitutional  question. 

Conclusion.  We  find  the  principle  of  "services  rendered"  to  be 
the  most  valid  one  with  respect  to  cooperative  service  with  govern- 
ment in  the  mutual  responsibility  for  education.  We  reaffirm,  there- 
fore, the  findings  of  the  Committee  of  Twenty-five  of  1958  which 
gave  us  the  principle  of  "services  rendered."  However,  we  call  the 
attention  of  the  Convention  to  two  important  matters : 

1.  The  field  of  "services  rendered"  has  been  greatly  broadened 
since  1958;  and, 

2.  The  Constitution  of  the  Baptist  State  Convention  allows  the 


222 


Baptist  State  Convention 


trustees  of  our  institutions  to  proceed  with  freedom  and  caution  to 
investigate  any  public  aid  program  with  the  General  Board  under 
the  principle  of  "services  rendered." 

The  Convention  Constitution,  Article  XI,  Section  D,  allows  Con- 
vention agencies,  including  the  colleges,  to  accept  and  use  public 
funds  for  "services  rendered,"  subject  to  the  approval  of  the  Gen- 
eral Board  of  the  Convention.  In  1958  the  Convention  approved 
the  following  guidelines  for  determining  whether  or  not  public 
funds  are  to  be  accepted  under  the  authority  of  the  Convention: 

''Guidelines  for  Services  Rendered" 

"I.  While  we  recognize  that  a  church  must  operate  within  a  state 
and  that  there  is  no  absolute  separation  of  church  and  state,  we 
maintain  that  government  should  guarantee  that  a  free  church  may 
function  without  ownership  or  operative  control  by  the  state. 

"II.  There  are  areas  of  mutual  interest  and  concern  to  both  church 
and  state,  and  in  such  areas,  there  is  both  the  possibility  and  the 
desirability  of  cooperation. 

"III.  We  believe  that  cooperation  must  involve  constant  alertness 
to  insure  the  integrity  cf  both  church  and  state  and  that  this  alert- 
ness must  be  practiced  by  each.  Therefore,  it  is  our  policy  that  any 
cooperative  enterprise  between  our  Convention  through  any  of  its 
agencies  or  institutions  and  government  shall  meet  the  following  re- 
quirements: 

"1.  There  shall  be  no  element  of  control  of  either  by  the  other, 
either  actual  or  implied. 

"2.  The  Convention  will  enter  no  cooperative  enterprise  with 
government  for  the  sole  purpose  of  advancing  its  own  interest. 

"3.  The  Convention  and/or  its  institutions  and  agencies  may 
accept  assistance  from  government  only  in  such  cases  as  will 
enable  it  or  them  to  render  services  commensurate  with  that 
assistance. 

"4.  North  Carolina  Baptist  recognize  and  reaffirm  the  principle 
that  tax  funds  are  collected  from  people  of  all  faiths  and  should 
therefore  never  be  used  as  an  outright  gift  or  dole  to  build  or 
operate  any  denominational  institution  or  further  any  sectarian 
interests;  and  North  Carolina  Baptists  further  believe  that  service 
for  which  government  payment  is  received  by  any  church-affili- 
ated institution  should  always  be  service  to  humanity  in  general 
and  never  service  that  will  further  denominational  or  sectarian 
objectives." 

The  Committee  of  20  believes  that  the  procedures  and  safe- 
guards of  1958  provided  by  our  Constitution  and  the  guidelines 
adopted  by  the  Baptist  State  Convention  in  1958  are  proper  and 
sufficient  bases  for  determining  the  acceptance  and  use  of  public 
funds  by  Convention  institutions  and  agencies.  Essentially,  the  ques- 
tions in  a  given  case  are:  (1)  whether  the  consideration  for  the 
funds  is  "service  rendered,"  and  (2)  whether  the  recommended 


OF  North  Carolina 


223 


guidelines  are  satisfied.  The  determination  of  these  matters  is  com- 
plex and  deserves  careful  study  by  a  qualified  group. 


We  recommend  that  the  Executive  Committee  of  the  General 
Board  appoint  a  committee  from  the  General  Board  (1)  to  study 
and  make  recommendations  to  the  General  Board  concerning  re- 
quests received  from  institutions  and  agencies  with  regard  to  the 
use  of  public  funds  and  (2)  in  considering  such  requests  to  give 
continuing  study  to  the  implementation  of  the  constitutional  pro- 
visions and  guidelines  in  regard  to  "services  rendered"  on  an  equit- 
able basis  for  all  institutions  and  agencies  of  the  Convention. 

In  concluding  this  report,  your  Committee  would  like  to  express 
its  appreciation  to  the  many  people  who  have  contributed  both 
directly  and  indirectly  to  this  study.  While  the  Committee  makes 
no  claim  to  having  identified,  much  less  solved,  all  the  problems, 
we  do  feel  that  we  are  approaching  the  time  when  there  can  be  a 
new  understanding  between  the  Convention  and  its  institutions  of 
higher  learning.  Your  Committee,  as  the  result  of  this  study,  is 
firmly  convinced  that  there  can  be  no  great  denomination  without 
good  colleges  and  universities.  We  believe  that  North  Carolina  Bap- 
tists have  every  right  to  be  proud  of  the  seven  accredited  institu- 
tions, which  will  in  the  future  as  in  the  past  offer  a  special  min- 
istry to  our  young  people.

Statistical  Reports 
Associational  and  Convention 

Prepared  by  The  Department  of  Statistics  and  Survey 
Ted  W.  Williams,  Secretary 
Mrs.  Lafata  Lusk,  Office  Secretary 

The  following  information  was  supplied  by  the  clerks  of  the  eighty 
(80)  Baptist  Associations  in  North  Carolina.  We  greatly  appreciate 
the  faithful  service  they  have  rendered  in  compiling  the  statistical 
data.  These  reports  are  based  on  the  associational  year,  and  the  fi- 
nancial figures  are  not  the  same  as  those  based  on  the  calendar  year 
reported  by  our  Convention  business  office. 

Items  marked  (*)  give  latest  data  available. 

Items  marked  ( *  * )  give  total  expenditures.  > 

Churches  not  reporting:  Indicated  by  (1),  (2),  or  (3) 

(1)  First  year  not  reporting — previous  year's  report  will  be  car- 
ried, except  for  baptisms,  additions  by  letter,  number  of  missions 
operated  by  church,  and  Vacation  Bible  School  enrollment. 

(2)  Second  consecutive  year  not  reporting — latest  total  member- 
ship only  will  be  carried. 

(3)  Third  consecutive  (and  subsequent)  year  not  reporting — no 
figures  carried,  but  will  be  counted  as  a  church.  (A  church  will  be 
counted  until  verification  is  received  from  the  association  that  a 
subject  church  has  been  disaffiliated  from  said  association.)

Baptist  State  Convention 


Auditor's  Statement 


Executive  Committee  of  the 
General  Board  of  the 

Baptist  State  Convention  of  North  Carolina 
Raleigh,  North  Carolina 


Gentlemen : 

We  have  examined  the  balance  sheet  of  the  Baptist  State  Convention  of  North 
Carolina  as  of  December  31,  1969,  and  the  related  statements  of  income 
and  changes  in  fund  balances  for  the  year  then  ended.  Our  examination  was 
made  in  accordance  with  generally  accepted  auditing  standards,  and  accordingly 
included  such  tests  of  the  accounting  records  and  such  other  auditing  procedures 
as  we  considered  necessary  in  the  circumstances.  The  statements,  which  are 
a  part  of  this  report  show  the  condition  of  the  General,  Education  and  Social 
Service  Institutions  Funds  at  December  31,  1969,  and  the  results  of  the  income 
and  expenses  for  the  year  then  ended.  The  statements  of  the  North  Carolina 
Baptist  Assembly,  the  Fruitland  Baptist  Camp  and  the  Fruitland  Baptist  Bible  In- 
stitute cover  the  operations  for  the  period  of  twelve  months  ended  December 
31,  1969  and,  in  addition  give  a  reconciliation  of  cash.  The  funds  shown  as 
sent  direct  are  taken  from  reports  received  by  the  Convention  and  were  not 
otherwise  verified  by  us. 

All  recorded  cash  receipts  were  found  to  be  promptly  deposited  in  the  bank 
and  disbursements  were  supported  by  cancelled  checks,  invoices  or  other  evi- 
dence, with  expenses  properly  classified.  Our  examination  did  not  disclose 
any  evidence  of  irregularities  and  we  believe  the  funds  have  been  carefully 
and  honestly  handled  and  accounted  for. 

In  our  opinion,  the  accompanying  balance  sheet  and  statements  of  income 
and  expenses  and  fund  balances  present  fairly  the  financial  position  of  the 
Baptist  State  Convention  of  North  Carolina  at  December  31,  1969,  and  the 
results  of  its  operations  for  the  year  then  ended,  in  conformity  with  generally 
accepted  accounting  principles  applicable  to  such  organizations,  applied  on  a 
basis  consistent  with  that  of  the  preceding  year. 

Respectfully  submitted,
